I applied in-person. The process took 6 months. I interviewed at E. J. Pelton (Alameda, CA) in Jun 2011
Interview
First question in the background check where you have to tell a police officer everything bad you've ever done in your life: "What's the WORST thing you've ever done?" Followed by questions and judgmental attitudes towards mistakes.
