I applied online. The process took 4 weeks. I interviewed at Penn State (State College, PA) in Jan 2016
Interview
I applied and received a request for a phone interview the next day. Phone interview followed by an onsite interview and job offer coming one week later. Very motivated to hire quickly. The interview panel was very friendly and didn't ask any questions that were out of the ordinary. The onsite interview took approximately two hours and provided smaller meetings with an HR rep, direct supervisor, and a chance for the rest of the team members to ask questions. Very relaxed and welcoming atmosphere.
