There were no pressure and they were welcoming. My interview took little bit over than 2 hours. I got interviewed by three people (HR Manager, Engineering Manager, Technician Team Leader). After the interview they told me they will reach back to me after a week. Surprisingly they didn't considering how went well the interview process and its been almost 2 weeks. I e-mailed them for a follow-up multiple time however never got a reply from them.
