Received interview request from hiring manager (PI) directly; after initial interview, had a phone interview with HR two weeks later. Did not get the offer, was irritated that HR never followed up with hiring decision as promised (had been told I would be notified "either way" in the next couple of days).

The interview process was in depth and took a long time to complete. Start to finish it took months. The initial offer was an intentional low ball. but they were willing to negotiate to a normal salary range. The people were very friendly and very helpful. The Institution itself is very small and the campus is beautiful. It is a perfect place to allow for very creative thought processes to occur. The people are independent and very intelligent. With no major cities around it makes it difficult to buy anything which results in a tremendous reliance on online ordering. They love their policies.
