I was called first - 10 minute phone conversation to confirm pay offered for the position, location commute, criminal background check as well as drug, credit and fingerprinting is ok. Also told a little about position, asked if still interested and I said YES- so then an email was sent with an appointment time for the interview. You then need to confirm with the email that you will keep the appointment. The interview was held at a local hotel conference room. Everyone there, the greeters representing CGI were very professional and very nice. I was offered to move forward meaning now in the process of the background checks etc. if I pass the mustard I will hopefully get fully hired! I was told it can take 3 to 5 months. it is an extensive check and understandably because of the nature of the work you are handling is very confidential.
