I applied online. The process took 4 weeks. I interviewed at Visio Lending (Austin, TX) in Apr 2021
Interview
Multiple interviews, first with a recruiter via phone call, second with the manager of the team via video call, third with higher ups and manager via video call, and fourth with the CEO via video call. CEO at the time was very down to earth and easy to talk to.
Friendly, welcoming. I met a lot of management during the process. Some of the interview was on the phone and others were one on one. Part of the interview was with a team.

Question 1
To describe my experience and knowledge of the industry.
I applied through a staffing agency. The process took 2 weeks. I interviewed at Visio Lending in June 2021
Interview
Had an interview with the director, he was nice, asked me about my resume, and we had a really good conversation about the position and how my experience related. My experience seemed to match exactly what they were looking for and he was excited for me to join the team. We dove into technical questions where he went down a list of terminologies and asked for me to define them for him. I don't think this was a great way to test how I would do on the job, as he described me as a "unicorn", but I didn't know what "hoisting" was. It was a very strange interview process, more of a way for the director to flex his knowledge onto me, not really sure I'd want to work here.
