I applied through college or university. The process took 4 weeks. I interviewed at Advantage Solutions (Minneapolis, MN) in May 2014
Interview
Complete disaster of an interview process. Recruiter had to reschedule last minute multiple times. Had a very uncomfortable phone and Skype interview. Third interview was in person, but was mostly just information on what the job was. I never felt I had a real interview which was less stressful but the whole process was unorganized and uncomfortable.

Hiring manage was very detailed regarding job description and expectations Provided great background of company as well as continuing growth and development plans Covered clients, dress code, and basic example of work load
