The process was fairly typical. I spoke with a recruiter first then was passed on to management a few days later. The questions were general at first with regards to my background and became more specific toward the end of the conversation. The feeling casual but professional. I could not get a clear idea of when the position(s) would be filled even though I asked specifically. A few days later I was contacted by another manager, basically the same process with a little more detailed questions.

I met with the person leading the new Raleigh division at the time, and a 2nd person who I honestly can't even remember what their role was... It seemed like they just happened to be there, not that they were actually part of my interview process. Our meeting was very informal, but I didn't know it was going to be that way and I felt very overdressed. They were wearing jeans and looked/acted like we were just hanging out. I can appreciate a work environment that's more laid back, but it was awkward at first. They didn't take the lead in asking any questions or drumming up conversation. I had to initiate conversation and then keep it going. I did appreciate that they showed me all the back-end website technology that I would be using; that was neat that they were so willing to show me how it all worked. Overall it just felt like, "okay, now I can say I met you so I can give you the job"... which I learned was more of a "we just need a body" type of job rather than actually being an important contributing member of the company. They basically just wanted a data entry person and I didn't feel like my relevant background really mattered. Maybe things are different now and maybe it was just because this was a brand new market for them at the time, but it was a weird experience.
