Interview

I applied online. The process took 1 week. I interviewed at Birkman International (New York, NY)
Interview
Process progressed very fast after getting an initial response, including getting a final decision. Everyone was pleasant. Typical Linux, PHP, and DB questions. During the process, learned the company is suffering considerably from more than 10 years of technical debt and is still working in PHP 4. Also, very much a non-remote company. In-office interview was 5 rounds, starting with team leads and ending with VP of operations and then CEO.
