1. Recruiter chat 2. Tech screen with Solution Architect 3. Technical interview with Solution Principal 4. In person casual chat with Practice Area Director 5. Offer extended via same recruiter via phone call and email of offer letter This info is specific to the Seattle, WA branch, so keep that in mind. I can't speak to how other branches operate. My situation was unique as I was remote in Cincinnati, OH and interviewing for a position in Seattle, WA via a referral from my buddy that worked there already. Usually, they'll have you come to the office in person and have it not be a remote process. Since, I wasn't moving without the promise of employment, this wasn't an option for myself. Overall, this was probably the most respectful process I've ever been through for recruitment. When I interview, I want to know the status of what's going on and next steps. I don't like my time wasted or to be strung along. They were very informative and I always knew that I was being considered and/or waiting for scheduling conflicts to be resolved on their end. An old work collegue I referred ended up taking over a week to find out he didn't pass screening, so your mileage may very. In terms of time, it was a long process. It was mostly due to my situation and both sides accommodating that. I've heard local hires go from interview start to offer letter in a matter of weeks. Again, your mileage will vary depending on location and who is involved in the process.

The hiring process started with meeting a recruiting manager. He explained the company, the core values, and the culture. Then I was taken on a grand tour of the facility. It was actually a terrific experience, and a huge part of my decision to go forward. Then about a week went by before a 30-minute phone interview could be scheduled with a solution architect. This one probably played a huge part in their decision to go forward with me. Then another week went by before the 2 hour in-person interview, with two different solution architects. I was extended an offer at this time, which was formalized over the next few days.
