Interview
I was set up rather quickly for an interview through the AI process. However, The area coach I was supposed to be interviewing with never showed up. The GM was nice and sat down and talked with me for a moment and explained that she had been caught up in some emergency, However, he promised me she would reach out to me---she never did. Seemed really unprofessional.

NA-Interviewer never showed up on day of interview.
It was pretty standard. The offer they gave me, I declined as it was nowhere near as competitive as other establishments for the same scope of work. There was 3 parts to the interview, and the offer made to me did not match the listing from the online job board.
