Process
Met with a recruiter at a tech event and heard back within a day.
Scheduled a standard phone interview for two weeks later.
The interview was standard, but the interviewer was a bit late.
They didn't seem interested in knowing more about me, were straight to the point, and the call ended within the hour.
