I applied online. The process took 3 months. I interviewed at IBM (Mailand) in Sep 2017
Interview
I applied online at the end of august, then they sent to me 2 online tests (personality and analitical), not easy.
I passed and I interviewed at IBM (Segrate, Milan) in September 2017. I had a series of face-to-face interviews with managers of different areas (Cloud and Enterprise Applications (SAP)) and one with the HR. The interview was easy, no hard questions, you have just to show your curiosity and passion for technology and obviously for IBM. I received no feedback, i called them and they told me "you passed, but now we have problems with hires". In november i did another interview on skype, with a manager of cognitive area (in september they said that the process was completed, no more interviews).
It's been over a month and I have no news...and probably i will not have.
Interview questions [1]
Question 1
Describe the connection between Cognitive, IoT, Cloud and Analytics
I applied through a recruiter. The process took 3 months. I interviewed at IBM (Philadelphia, PA) in Jul 2017
Interview
Lengthy hiring process. Completed a video interview and attended their Immersion Weekend- which was essentially a 3 day event consisting of networking, Case competition, culminating with 3 rounds of speed interviews.
That was a great experience. Unfortunately the rest of the hiring process was not. I was offered a position almost 3 months later, when I was told I would hear back from them 2 weeks after the event. It took close to 8 weeks to receive a written offer, which was only after contacting HR a number of times. Every time HR said I would receive something “within the week,” they never delivered. They did not update candidates on the status of their offer, ignored all contact, which was very unprofessional. HR and recruitment should be able to inform candidates of an anticipated timeline and at the very last, respond to them in a timely when they have questions.

I applied online. The process took 6 weeks. I interviewed at IBM (Dubai) in Nov 2017
Interview
Simply applied online and then was invited to the assessment centre in Dubai.
First exercise was a group puzzle exercise. We were 6 and had 1 hour to piece the clues together.
Second exercise was a case study within the same group. A hypothetic tourist hotel is looking to purchase a luxury yacht and start trips. should they do it?
And lastly was a technical interview where I also presented my preprepared presentation.
