I applied online in June of 2017. Didn't hear anything back until an email sent by a University Recruiter in August 2017. Scheduled a phone call with her the next day. Moved forward and had a second interview the following day with the hiring manager.
It was smooth, discussed couple objectives of the project as well as the requirements of the position and responsibilities, what is to be expected from a member of the team.
