Contacted by HR Scheduled a face to face interview with the hiring manager. After the interview, I received a tour of the facility from the manager. I was contacted by HR about a week later with an offer. Established a start date with HR When I came in for my first day, the hiring manager did not know that I had accepted an offer nor was he expecting me. For the first week, I had no desk, computer, and he gave me an M1 operators manual to read.
