I applied through a staffing agency. The process took 2 weeks. I interviewed at Cookie Lee (Costa Mesa, CA) in Aug 2011
Interview
First you have a staffing company book your interview and then you are booked for an in person interview with the company directly. The interview process on both occasions were not longer than 1/2 hour each. Both had asked standard interviewing questions and both companies were polite and cordial during the process.
