Interview
I was contacted for a phone interview. The interviewer described the position, and asked if I would have any difficulty with things like walking, climbing stairs and the like. He asked about my mode of transportation, and whether I was seeking full or part time. Questions were very straightforward, no "trick questions". After our question and answer interview, I was offered the position.
