Was quick, applied for the job online, and then about a week or two later I got a phone call asking to see if i wanted to come in for an interview. Interview didn't last long and later that day I got a call saying I got the job.
Informal chat, list of questions and very friendly. I felt at ease instantly as the guy was very welcoming. A few situation questions were asked and nothing too difficult, have these prepared and you will be fine.
