Interviewed Nov 2009 (took a day)

Initially I spoke with the employer about my background and previous three internships. He immediately seemed interested in my resume and invited me to meet with him in a couple of days. When I met for the interview I was asked about strengths and weaknesses and was asked how I viewed the company as a whole. Overall it was a very straightforward interview process. However, I was never given a call verifying the result of the interview in spite of a phone call and an email I sent to inquire.
