A 20 min phone call with a recruiter. After that, I was passed through to the next round which was speaking with an actual consultant to hear his experience.

Question 1
Are you okay with 80-100% travel?
What role do you usually assume in a group?
I applied online. The process took 3 months. I interviewed at Avanade (New York, NY) in May 2018
Interview
Overall, the interview process was very pleasurable. It started with a 45 min phone screening with a recruiter--this was just to learn about my previous experience and whether I would be a good fit for the position. The recruiter was very informative and had my best interest in mind. The second "interview" was also over the phone, but with a Senior Software Engineer--I had the chance to lead the interview and ask about work culture, his experience, etc. In the last 15 mins, I was also asked behavioral questions although I was told this portion of the interview would be technical. The final round was an in-person interview which lasted for an hour.

Question 1
Describe a difficult situation and how you approached handling it
I applied online. The process took 2+ months. I interviewed at Avanade (Los Angeles, CA) in Feb 2017
Interview
The overall process went well although they did take a few weeks in between each interview which was nerve racking. But the company looked great and the position itself appeared to be tailor made for what I wanted to do as a career in Tech.
Being that I live on the East Coast I was contacted by one recruiter who worked for a recruiting company that is partnered with Avanade. After I completed and passed a behavioral interview with him, he then directed me towards another recruiter who actually worked for the company in which she contacted me weeks later. By this time I am already interviewing with other companies with a few offers but they were not paying much so I proceeded to wait.
She called me about 3 weeks later to schedule a technical interview and a final Skype interview 2 weeks after that. Fortunately enough it took 2-3 days for them to make a final decision. Now for the actual interviews.
So I went through 4 different types of interviews throughout this process. First a behavioral interview which was not difficult whatsoever, second was a interview with a engineer in the headquarters office in Seattle. I led the entire interview (asked her questions about the company etc.) she was very cool. Third interview was with the head software engineering director of the West Coast this was supposed to be a technical interview (which I prepared for.) but he recently got off vacation and asked questions more about why do I want to work in consulting etc. nothing to difficult. Final interview was via Skype with the hiring manager at the LA office where I would be working. Another neutral interview asked me about technology and explain my passion for it, projects etc. Overall a very great experience. Make sure you are prepared for each interview because you never know what types of questions they might ask. Also, make sure you review each interviewers LinkedIn profile before the actual interview it HELPS. I hope this review helps. Cheers.
