I applied online. The process took 4 weeks. I interviewed at Avanade (San Francisco, CA) in May 2021
Interview
I applied online via LinkedIn and received a call from the recruitment team soon after. This was an initial phone screen. After this, there were 2 rounds on 1:1 interviews - one with a business analyst and the other with the hiring manager. These interview rounds took place over Teams. Both rounds were well paced, more of a conversational type and focused on past experience, challenging situations, familiarity with challenges, experience in consulting, and willingness to learn new technologies.
Interview questions [1]
Question 1
Past experience dealing with changing requirements, experience in Agile projects, challenging situations faced, getting consensus on difficult issues, ability to work in distributed teams, etc.
I interviewed with Avanade for the position of Business Analyst. I qualified round 1 with great feedback,the second round was a nightmare.First,half of the questions were not audible..!All I could hear is a robotic voice..have never faced such issues ..secondly, the interviewer was so unempathetic..she kept asking questions like a robot knowing the voice situation..I worked really hard and prepared well however ,the interviewer could have been a little bit more considerate about the total ongoing situation.She was totally indifferent to what was going on and I felt she was determined to reject!!
I’m not finished yet but it was a straightforward process so far. The first step was a phone call with a recruiter and currently I am waiting to be scheduled with someone for the next interview .
