I applied online. The process took 1 week. I interviewed at ACES ABA (Irvine, CA) in Jul 2013
Interview
Brief interview with the recruiter, no questions about the particular field. I wasn't even sure if the interviewer knew anything about ABA. Felt like the interview was more of a formality, and as long as you met the education/experience qualifications and don't come off too weird you would be hired. I almost didn't take the job because the interview was so easy.

The interview process was quick and I was offered the job on the spot. The seemed eager to get spots filled and mentioned they had a high turnover rate. I felt a bit uncomfortable as they mentioned I lived in a bad neighborhood so I should be comfortable working in bad neighborhoods.
