Lengthy Application Process

Note: This post is for September 4, 2011

A Criminal?

The application process was very lengthy. Although you can do the initial application online, the resulting PDF file containing the completed application contained 36 pages.  They include so much information that include information you find on your resume, skill sets, education, financial status, martial status, legal questions, and of course health-related questions. 

They also require references, and those who I chose to speak for me need to complete questions on me online, confidentially of course.

There are four “phases” or “stages” in the application process.  (1) The initial application phase, which I just described above; (2) the interview phase with a recruiter; (3) the nomination phase; (4) and lastly the placement phase.
