Easy Interview

Overall Neutral Experience

Interviewed and No Offer

Interviewed Jan 2012 in Olathe, KS (took a day)

Only offered $14.50 an hour starting pay. They said there was no room to move up in the company (i.e. to an Analyst) but said that there would be potential to be a Senior Tech after TWO YEARS. Very basic questions, any decent ArcGIS user could fill the position (they use in-house software that is very similar to ESRI products.)
