      Easy interview

      Application

      I applied online. The process took 1 week. I interviewed at The Arc (Anchorage, AK) in Apr 2012

      Interview

      Kind people from CLS at the time, easy interview. Three interviewers, the names of whom I will not list here. I felt comfortable and competent during the process. I sailed right through the process, and was pretty sure that I had the job as I left the building. I had to watch a short video to get the interview, and was hired within a few days of having completed the process.
