Said I wasn’t qualified for an entry level position when I had more years than required. They where slow to get back to me and would say I’d be a fit for a lower level.
Offline tests (approximately 1 hour)
Telephone interview (approximately 20 minutes)
In-person interview (approximately 6 hours)
The position wasn’t a perfect fit for me, so I didn’t receive an offer. However, everyone was very professional, and I really liked the organization.
