Interview
The interview process was surprisingly easy. I applied online at the end of October or beginning of November and was immediately asked to complete a personality/behavior assessment. I didn't hear anything back until the beginning of February when I got an email saying that they had an interview slot available the following week in Dallas. They flew me out to Dallas for a very short interview - it consisted of a site tour and 2 45-minute interviews. The interview was Thursday morning/afternoon and I received an offer by Saturday evening.

Interview
Quick, simple, almost a whirlwind. Bring you into the facility, give you a tour, then straight into interview 1 for 30-45 minutes and then escorted to 2nd interview right after for another 30-45 minutes. Then escorted out through security. Bring as little as possible as it will save you time going through the security protocols.
