I applied through an employee referral. The process took 3 weeks. I interviewed at Novium
Interview
After an initial phone call I took an at home entrance test on relevant subject material and gave a technical presentation on my previous work. The process was smooth and enjoyable. It gave me good insight to the employer's expectations and the friendly company culture.

I applied online. The process took 1 week. I interviewed at Novium (Houston, TX) in Feb 2022
Interview
The interview was enjoyable. It started off with a nice, honest conversation with one of the founders. The emphasis of the conversation was on the intent of the company and their values around their employees. It's a largely remote employee base, so they want to make sure it's the right fit for you. It should be if you are someone who is self-managing with high integrity. The second part of my interview was a presentation on a topic of my choice. I chose to discuss a particularly challenging engineering problem I solved, and the stories surrounding it.
