I applied through a recruiter. The process took 1 week. I interviewed at Epic in Oct 2014
Interview
I was initially contacted by a recruiter. After expressing my interest, they sent to me an email detailing the next steps to take. I had to take a personality test, as well as a multi-part skills test that was monitored through my webcam. Afterwards, I had a brief phone interview that lasted around 20-30 minutes.
I applied online. The process took 2 weeks. I interviewed at Epic
Interview
Online application with resume, 2 hour exam, 30 min phone interview, and personality "test", if your lucky you'll get invited for onsite interview.
The exam included programing language which, if you have no experience, look up online. Even a little bit of basic knowledge and terminology will help you. Be quick but accurate. It took me about 90 min to complete and it isn't torturous, but it isn't simple. The phone interview isn't as important as the test, but it's more for weeding out really awful candidates.
If you are prompt at replying to them the whole process can take 2 weeks from application to onsite interviews, it's all based on your availability. They always responded to me within 24 hours (Often less).
Just because you are invited to campus for the onsite, doesn't mean you will receive an offer, they invite anyone who is smart enough to campus, but to get the offer you need to wow them with your personality and presentation skills. Also no PowerPoint is allowed for the 10 min presentation

Initially had a phone interview and then had to take a couple skills aptitude tests. One test seemed like an IQ test while the other tested my ability to learn code.
