Waited 2 days called back with offer, accepted.
Company was hiring for a new position so exact details about the territory and training we sparse.
In general very positive experience, everyone I talked to was very friendly and personable, didn't feel like other phone interviews I have had where you can tell that they are just asking the questions from a list,
seemed actually interested in my answers.

Been with company 7 years as a RCM ,aka merchandiser, had interview for Unit mgr position. The senior mgr. never asked about my experiences as mgr. from previous jobs, she did most of the talking on how she worked up, and her what she did on her days off.

The interview process was great however the HR department is in no hurry. It took over a month to finalize employment even after I was offered the job at the first interview. It took over three weeks for the position to be posted as open on their website so I could officially apply. Then it took two more weeks for various background checks ect.
