I met with the folks at a Career Fair called LiveHire. The initial person i spoke to i never heard from again, but the person who followed up with me turned out to become my boss. After speaking with him in person and on the phone several times, i then spoke to the regional manager via phone for a final phone interview. I then started two weeks later after giving notice to my then current employer.
