Declined Offer – Reviewed Jul 20, 2012

Interview Details – I met the interviewer at a job fair. It was obvious that he was new to management and wasn't too good at interviewing. I was offered the position and it turns out that I had to jump through several HR hoops to actually get it. It was pretty ridiculous.

Reason for Declining – Too many HR hoops to jump through. It also took forever to complete the HR process.
