I applied online. I interviewed at Plenty of Fish (Vancouver, BC)
Interview
I had an extremely unpleasant telephone conversation with a senior Report Developer just recently.Within the first few minutes and for almost the entire 15 minute duration of our conversation she was extremely unprofessional,and repeatedly attacked my resume
emphasizing that I don't acquire the skills necessary for the position
without asking me any technical questions. If this is truly the case, then
can I ask why the company has choose to approach me? I would assume that
she had access to my resume prior to calling me and if she really felt that
I was so unqualified for the position why did she choose to waste valuable
time out of my day and make the company appear very unprofessional.

Application
I applied online. The process took 3 weeks. I interviewed at Plenty of Fish (Vancouver, BC) in Aug 2017
Interview
A general fit interview followed by a couple of technical interviews and then further interviews with people in various management positions to determine all the non-technical, non-culture stuff. No points of this process felt repetitive, and there was a great feeling of accomplishment from getting through it, and also confidence that POF screens people well.
