I applied online. The process took 3 weeks. I interviewed at Empower (Overland Park, KS) in Feb 2017
Interview
Extremely pleasant experience. I interviewed with 3 managers in the department at the same time. The managers had a prescribed set of questions to ask and then they opened up to my questions. The entire experience was definitely geared to a casual conversation as opposed to a pressure cooker.
