For anyone with previous work experience, the interview process with Epic is a joke. I applied online, where I raised my eyebrows at having to provide my ACT score. I had a telephone interview shortly after applying. There was very little discussion about my work experience and background, but instead the recruiter tried to sell me on the Project Manager position. The weirdest question she asked was "Did you go to college straight out of high school or did you take some time off?" What does that really matter? You can see from my resume that I attended a top notch business school and had a high gpa. I can't help but feel that they were age profiling me. I was invited for an on-site interview and reluctanty agreed to go. I was just getting a weird vibe from my minimal interactions by that point. The day before I had drafted an email to cancel my interview, but then curiousty got the best of me and I decided to check it out. I wish I hadn't wasted my time. I showed up that morning and joined a HUGE group of college student recruits. I felt ridiculously out of place with my mere 4 years of work experience. We were given a tour of the campus, which is beautiful, but not beautiful enough for me to want to join the Epic cult. They then gave us a software demo and I was shocked by how antiquated the program's interface looks. The rest of the day consisted of giving a 10 minute presentation, role overviews, 2+ hours of written assessments, lunch with the college kids, and a mere hour of actual interviewing. I felt like I had no opportunity to talk about what I can actually bring to the table. Basically the vibe I got was that they don't want anyone with too much outside experience because they want naive newbies to come in, drink the kool-aide, and have no work-life balance. My mood turned sour about mid-day and I started getting pretty salty with the recruiters. I wouldn't work there unless I was desparate, plain and simple.

Glassdoor had very accurate description of the whole process. I did resume drop, did the online assessment, then got scheduled for a role introduction session where you listen to the person who currently has the job to describe what they do. Afterwards, there's the superday online where you will do a 10-min presentation on any topic you like and case study with peers, then behaviors. Overall a pretty smooth and enjoyable experience.
