Interview
Since I was based in Los Angeles, the two team leads allowed a phone interview. The female mainly talked, the other was quiet. They were very courteous, and were interested in my previous experience as a Metadata Operator. They also answered my questions, and confirmed there were opportunities to growth; unfortunately, there's not much.
