Epic Project Manager · Implementation Consultant interview questions

The interview process is incredibly thorough, considering it's for an entry level position. After you submit your initial application, you will be contacted for a phone interview. The phone interview is pretty basic, consisting of questions about your educational and work experience. After the phone interview, you are asked to come for an in-person interview at Epic. The in-person interview is ridiculous. You arrive at 9 am and do not leave until 3:30 pm. The day begins with a very short tour of one Epic building. After your tour, an HR member gives a presentation about Epic and another staff member gives you a demo on the software. After the demo, you and two other candidates meet with an implementation consultant and they give a very vague description of their job. You then complete your first 1:1 interview, which is a case study about issues with a new client. The interviewer is pretty aggressive and continues to change the scenario on you after you give an answer. After your first interview, you give a presentation. It's relatively easy and can be about any topic you wish to present on. After the presentation you go to lunch with three other candidates and an Epic employee. After lunch you take three assessments: math, verbal and programming. The tests are not that bad. However, the programming assessment is a waste of time. The next 1:1 interview consists of questions about your leadership skills. At this point in the day, you are tired and want to go home. Again, the interviewer is aggressive and pushes you on your answers. You are also asked to provide Epic with a copy of your college transcript, three references and your ACT score.

The interview starts with a phone 'consultation' which really just tells you about the job and if you would like to come to madison for an interview. no real questions here, just going over the resume and job. Now comes the fun. They fly you out, put you up in a nice hotel and take you out to some awesome restaurant. basically they don't want you to fear the smaller-town, which it really is. the next day you have many tests, exams, 1 on 1 situations, a presentation, and finally a more standard interview. I think they want to stress you and get a feeling how you handle it...and perform. You must be outgoing, interesting, and smart. Your exact skills/degree dont matter, as long as you engage them and seem like a fit you have a shot. However, realize majority get no offer...if you do, it is hard to say no. Salary+benefits are top notch, they rival IB's and the like but living in wisconsin in so much cheaper. it will be hard but the place is rolling in cash...amazing right now.
