Lots of people but very friendly atmosphere. Got there an hour before interview started through bus. Took about 4 hours from beginning to end. Very much enjoyed the system they showed up it gave us lots of time for Q&A
Application, ODVI, F2F. All pretty straightforward, emphasize safety and customer service. If they like you, youll get moved onto F2F round. Practice STAR Method and be comfortable talking in front of a camera
