Very slow and tedious. The waiting time for the results of the short initial exam was 4-5 hours. The recruiting staff did not even bother to update the applicant as to what's keeping them so long. Some of them were just lounging around chatting. The waiting area was small and dark (unlike years before), and all the applicants were crowded around and looked like they were about to suffocate. During the long (forever) wait, if you get famished (out of boredom), you would need to shell out at least 300-500 pesos on one of the nearby fine dining restos in the area since their huge cafeteria is restricted from applicants. Otherwise, you would have to brave the great outdoors, which is about 3-5 miles away from the nearest fast food (and market so hold on to that bag real tight). And so after waiting for what seemed like an eternity, I finally got interviewed just to be told, by a stuttering recruiter (who seemed dressed for a Playboy business-edition centerfold), in English, that I didn't make it.
