I applied through a staffing agency. The process took 1 week. I interviewed at Solar Turbines (San Diego, CA) in Mar 2016
Interview
I was contacted by a hiring agency and my resume was submitted to the hiring manager. A few days later, I was given a face-to-face interview and, a few days after that, an offer was extended. I did not accept the offer, though I wanted to, due to agency's unwillingness to negotiate rate.
