Process
I applied on a Monday and received an email and then a call on Tuesday from a recruiter.
She asked me about my background with only about 5 questions.
She then set up a call with the hiring manager two days later. That call lasted 30 minutes.
The call went well. She asked me to test a toaster and how I would move a mountain.
The 'moving a mountain' question was challenging as she grilled me on my answers.
She told me to be ready to come in for the next interview.
