Kirkland, WAPosted Oct 2014 · Candidate report, summarized by Dataford

My process started with a phone interview with HR, and then they scheduled a follow-up with a team leader and one of the section managers.

The questions were very situation-based, aimed at how my past behavior would predict future performance. Salary wasn’t discussed during the process, and they indicated they’d make an offer instead of talking numbers upfront.

What stood out to me was how directly the structure was described: if you performed at an average level, they’d still pay at that level rather than renegotiating through repeated discussions. I didn’t end up getting an offer, and the overall journey felt more like a scripted evaluation of fit than a conversation where compensation details were transparent.
