Application
I applied through an employee referral. The process took 4+ weeks. I interviewed at SI Group (Schenectady, NY).
Interview
It has changed in the last few years, but I met with three technical staff members then had on onsite interview. I was referred by an employee. The overall process was slow. When HR called to give me an offer I has already done research on what salary to demand.
