Do you have any tips for others interviewing with this company?

"The interview process was much easier than some of other companies I have interviewed. That is a good thing. Instead, some companies challenge you to the core and take their sweet time about an hour to get whatever is up to your brain out and simply say good luck at the end. (they judge you too soon before seeing what are you capable of). I'm talking about other companies, not the one I was with."
