First I went to EI's info session and talked to their project managers, and HR. The following day I went through a 1-on-1 interview with the project manager. First EI said they will select candidates for an on-site interview. One week later they said for future development they decided not to hire any candidates at this point of time.

I was referred by a family member. He scheduled an appointment for me to go in and speak with their recruiter, but they quickly ushered me into a meeting room for a full-blown interview. I didn't have any IT experience to speak of, but I was tech savvy and experienced with technology from my home life. I was offered an internship, which turned into a permanent position on the team.
