A recruiter reached out on a Thursday at 10 AM. The interview was set for the next morning — Friday, 11, online, with three company supervisors and the recruiter in the room. At 1:30 that same afternoon, the offer email landed.
Two days from first contact to offer, and the entire decision fitted inside a single afternoon. No six-round tour, no take-home that outlasts the role, no 'we'll be in touch' that ripens into next quarter. The company knew what it wanted, interviewed for it once, and moved.
