Day 3 => I had a call from the Recruitment team asking for a phone screening.
Day 4 => Phone screening.
Day 7 => In person interview
Day 7 => Verbal confirmation.
After working there I realized that this was extremely fortunate as in most cases the recruitment process takes much time!
Interview Question – Questions in java memory handling to much detailed level. Including details of garbage collection, how algoritm works, tuning options in jvm, strong, weak, phantom references, etc. Being an experienced developer it was not difficult but unusual. Answer Question

Interview Details – Had a phone interview that went well followed by an in person interview. They acted as though they were impressed, and then said they would call me in a few days. Never heard from them and then when I followed up they said they were still in the decision process and that the would get back to me with a definitive and were in a couple days. After that I still never heard from them. I understand not getting the job, but it's unprofessional to promise a response and then just have radio silence.

Sales/CS Agent at Travelocity
Accepted Offer – Interviewed in Wilkes Barre, PA Mar 2007 – Reviewed Apr 11, 2009

I only had the one interview it was in the morning and by late afternoon they called to offer me a postion, which I did accept.
Negotiation Details – It is pretty straight foward in what they offer so there is no negotiations.
