The interview was pretty laid back and low pressure, which I liked. It felt natural talking with the interviewers. I did want to mention something about the perks and pay incentives though. I was told at first that I'd get them, but then found out I wouldn't. It was a bit of a letdown because I was counting on those extras.

The interview process was long and involved an agency. A clearance is required, which involves filling out the e-QIP form online. This is mandatory to get a clearance. If you don't get an interim clearance, you likely won't get the job. If you're going through an agency, they will find someone else. Be clear and take every precaution to expedite the e-QIP, as your answers and supporting information might get you the interim clearance or not. You can attach supporting documentation online, and it's highly recommended to be thorough and well-organized. If you don't get an interim clearance, the wait for the investigation to complete could be 6 months to a year.
