I applied online. The process took 1 week. I interviewed at Navient (Newark, DE) in Jul 2017
Interview
It was a pretty quick process. I received a phone call to interview within a few days. Went in and met with a gentleman from Human Resources and he was extremely nice, he led me to a room with other candidates and probably had a 20 minute wait which wasn’t a problem. I met with one of the supervisors in the department I applied for, he was very thorough with explaining the details of the job I applied for, benefits, pay, etc., and just asked general questions about my work history. It definitely felt like more of a conversation with a friend than a pressure filled interview. Soon after I was offered the position and started a week later.
