Process
First, a phone interview.
Next, a personality test, which is very difficult and covers basic IQ and common sense skills.
Then, an in-person interview. Basic questions are asked, but they are very hard to figure out on the spot. This process is very difficult for unprepared individuals. You must be articulate and communicate well with others.
If you make it past the phone interview, you are on the right track.
