Interview
I applied online, received an email with a Skype interview invitation 2 weeks later. Scheduled a Skype interview in another 2 weeks. Had an interview, very positive experience, told they will inform me by the end of next week of the results but unfortunately no word from them. I contacted them after 3 weeks and I was told that they are still in process of deciding and that they will let all the candidates know if they are moving forward or not in a week. Again no news, so I decides to give it one more shot and call them. They've told me that they have hired someone already and that they will keep me in their base for future openings.
