Interview

The instructions were confusing and it was difficult to find the right steps to take to fulfill all the application requirements.

Pretty quick and simple interview process for such a big company. Everyone seemed nice that I spoke to over the phone but for the most part the interview was all online. Just answering questions and recording your answers.
