She doesn’t want to postpone start date so not to have gap between jobs. So she’ll start a new job for a firm she visited twice for two days of interview. And in fact never met her boss. Isn’t it something?
Wow! That really IS something else! Congrats to your daughter as well! Amazing how it is business as usual in some ways.

I would probably have to start this job (if I were even offered it) while working from home and never having the chance to meet anyone in person. But I've done that before through independent consulting. You can video chat so that way you can get a good sense of the people you're going to work with. I imagine if I made it to the next level of interviews, they would suggest a video interview.
