I applied online. The process took 1+ week. I interviewed at iContact (Morrisville, NC)
Interview
Great people and process. The recruiter worked with me directly and quickly got me on the phone with the manager and vp. Typical interview questions mainly about background, skills, why interested etc. Got a call back next day wanting an in person interview. This was with the manager, vp, and three team leads. They sent me some homework including to client scenarios and 1 campaign to review.
The in person interview was 3 hours and was primarily based on the scenario responses and my personality. They seem to truly value the work culture they're developing and want to make sure my personality type and how I approach problem solving meshed. I couldn't tell you want exactly they were looking for but I'd encourage you to ask culture and personality questions on the initial call to get a feel for what they view as ideal.
I was offered the job 1day later.

You're going to dinner with friends are you the person shouting out options, the person trying to convince everyone of the right choice, the person who says you don't care?
