I submitted my application 2 days after it appeared on an online job board. I received a call 2 days later to set up an screening interview with HR via phone. Two weeks later I had the screening intervew. I was emailed several documents to look at and was told I would hear from them within 2 weeks for another phone interview. I had a total of 4 phone interviews and one 1:1 interview. I am an IT professional, and none of the people who interviewed me knew anything about IT and told me so. I received an offer about 6 weeks after I sent my application in and started working 2 weeks later. What a mistake that was! I have now found a company that will make an offer the day of the interview.
