Bit of a silly question, but I was curious as to how the interview scheduling process works? Do I get assigned a date, or is it my job to call up and book an appointment? Also, is the date generally close to when the paperwork is recieved or do they tend to book a few months down the track?

Thanks so much guys, love your guts! <3
