The process took 1 week. I interviewed at New York State Thruway Authority (New York, NY) in May 2013
Interview
Knew someone in the design office, and she passed my contact info along to the regional director. His secretary called me to schedule an interview.
I came in and there was the regional director and an HR person. The regional director just chatted with me while the HR director asked a few short behavioral questions. I was offered the job on the spot - they were pretty desperate for help.
