the hiring and interview process was quick easy and generic. they ask the normal kinds of questions you would in any interview in regards to waiting - no problem solving questions or anything like that. I was questioned on my CV, experience and why I want the job. Only daunting thing was how intimate the interview was as it was one on one.
