Application
I applied through a recruiter. The process took 1 day. I interviewed at SolarCity (Rocky Hill, CT) in Aug 2015
Interview
I was contacted by a recruiter the next morning after submitting my resume. She conducted a roughly 30 minute interview by phone and then asked if I could come in for an interview with a couple of the Regional Sales Managers that afternoon. It was 1.5 hr drive with little notice but I just got dressed quickly and headed out the door.
I met with two RSM's and the interview lasted about 45 minutes. While I was driving home I got a call from the recruiter offering me the job.
From the time I submitted my resume to the offer was just under 24 hrs. These folks move fast!

Two interviews, one with Regional Manager, second with District manager via Zoom call. Rather difficult interview which not a lot of people make it to the second interview unless the regional manager really likes you.
