It took about three weeks from the time I applied online for a recruiter to contact me. After the initial telephone conversation with the recruiter, I had a phone interview with the hiring manager, an on-site team interview, and an on-site interview with the director. From the first phone contact to the final offer was just over a week. My impression of the interviews: 1) Recruiter phone: Just making sure I'm not an idiot. Asked for 1/2 hour of my time, took about 5 minutes. Professional conversation. 2) Manager phone: Pre qualify with a few technical questions. 3) Team on-site: More in-depth 'traditional' interview, getting to know the team & culture, more technical questions 4) Director 1:1 on-site: Validation of team's feedback, making sure I'm a good fit. Overall, I was impressed with the speed of the interview process. I would say they were asking the right questions and didn't get caught up in weird dynamics, as sometimes happens with team interviews. I wouldn't say the interviews were 'easy', but they weren't painful. 'Professional' would be the best term. After the verbal offer is accepted, you go through a company called HireRight for background screening. For this position, it was only employment history, education history, and criminal background check. There was no drug or credit check. I was not happy with the boilerplate consent form, because you have to consent to ALL screenings, even if they aren't doing them. This should be changed to be specific for the type of screening that will occur. HireRight is not a good company. I would recommend Thomson Reuters go through another agency for background checks. I am not the only person who is unimpressed with their process. If you Google reviews for HireRight, you will see what I mean. Although my experience with them was less than satisfactory, at least I didn't have the nightmare that others experienced.
