Interview
Be prepared to interview with folks in vastly different time zones as well; the reviews give some insight however the process is mercurial and protracted. This interview was for a contract gig that spanned over 3-4 months and in the end it appeared that the hiring personnel/decision-makers were not in agreement on the role. The role was reposted online for applications shortly after I was not invited to the 3rd round of interviews.
