I applied online. The process took 3 weeks. I interviewed at Epic (Calgary, AB) in Oct 2012
Interview
First applied online, followed by a phone interview which lasted about 30 mins. The phone interview basically walked through my resume and some of my projects. I was then scheduled to take a test at a testing center. The test was made up of logi questions, new programming language and 4 programming questions. I am confident I performed very well in the online test, but after a week and half, I had a mail telling me they have decided to continue with other candidates
I applied online. The process took 1 week. I interviewed at Epic (Madison, WI) in Nov 2012
Interview
Very smooth and fast paced interview process. Started with a 30 min routine interview introducing EPIC's background and asking about my educational background, ex. GRE scores, availability etc. Then I was invited to an onsite interview consisting of three exams, programming, math, and logics, lunch with a current employee, couple of tours, a demo presentation (which is poorly made), and an interview with a software engineer. The exams are pretty straight forward. During the interview, I spent the entire hour talking about my recent project and asked the interviewer couple of questions about working at EPIC at the end.
I applied through college or university. The process took 5 weeks. I interviewed at Epic (Verona, WI)
Interview
After submitting my resume at a career fair, I was contacted for a phone screen. The phone screener (a current software developer at Epic) asked me to verify some of the information on my resume, and then asked a number of very standard interview questions (What was the biggest challenge at your last role, and how did you overcome it? etc.).
A few days later, I was invited to an onsite interview in Wisconsin. Before going, I had to complete an online personality test. At the actual interview, there were a number of information-oriented sessions (tours, software demos, various current employees explaining what they do, etc.), and only two real interviews. For one, I'd been asked to prepare a description of a development project I'd worked on in the past; I discussed it with a current employee for about 45 minutes. The other interview consisted of a series of behavioral questions (What would you do in this situation? What's been the most difficult part of a previous job / most frustrating part / what have you learned / etc.).
There were also four standardized tests - verbal, math/logic, problem-solving, and programming - that I completed throughout the day. And at the end of the day, I met with an HR recruiter, who asked me questions about my day, my expected salary, my references, and so forth. She then gave me a pop math quiz (!).
