I applied through other source. The process took 2 weeks. I interviewed at Optiv (Phila, PA) in Apr 2018

The interview process was a series of five remote collaboration meetings with various members of the local office, including other client managers, solutions architects, and leadership from both sales and engineering. There were also a few face to face meetings with the hiring manager, as well as some "logistical" calls with the company recruiter to organize the setup of the interviews.
