You got to meet the decision makers up front. No unnecessary hurdles
They were very open to meeting me after hours so that it wouldn't affect the company I was already working for.
I got to meet members of the team I would be joining to determine whether it was a good culture fit.
More formalized process, I honestly would have never joined if I knew how disjoined things would be and the level of abuse I experienced at the hands of my manager personally.
