I applied online. The process took 2 weeks. I interviewed at Grand Image (Seattle, WA) in Jul 2021
Interview
Three interview rounds: 1) with direct report, the Lead PM; 2) with other PMs on the PM team, and 3) planned to be with the COO, but went with the Lead PM again due to scheduling issues.
Every level of interviewing was essentially a confirmation of my background on my resume, no real surprises.
The job was offered during the 3rd interview, onsite and accompanied by a tour of the Seattle office and some department intros.

I applied online. The process took 3 weeks. I interviewed at Grand Image (Seattle, WA) in Apr 2018
Interview
Do NOT consider working for this company. They bait and switch you with salary. I interviewed for a Project Manager position. Killed the interview. Got to talk to various employees and asked about my expected salary. They said that was very doable.
I then got asked to create a PowerPoint presentation based on a fictitious client and their needs. It was an exciting opportunity, so I put a lot of effort into it and again, killed it. They said they not only liked it, they'd probably use my own ideas going forward.
I was then offered the job for low $30k, which is tens of thousands below what any experienced Project Manager makes. I asked where the disconnect was and they said that it's an entry level position, which is a blatant lie. That's called a Project Coordinator.
They're a disingenuous company that lies to their applicants. Don't waste your time.
