I applied through a staffing agency. The process took 1 week. I interviewed at IBM in Dec 2011
Interview
Just one round of interview with a functional manager for 10 mins and I was hired!
(of course, there was HR round and Salary negotiation round - which I don't consider as 'interviews')
I applied online. The process took 4 months. I interviewed at IBM
Interview
Ridiculously long process that is made excruciatingly painful by the bureaucracy of the company and the offshoring of HR/Recruiting to India, which makes it impossible to connect with a person from the office. Before HR was involved, the process went just slow - about 2 months from application to verbal offer, but then it took another 2 months just to get the HR to release a paper offer.
I applied through an employee referral. The process took 3 weeks. I interviewed at IBM in Feb 2010
Interview
Everything was on phone first round then within 2 days i got a call for 2nd round and final 3rd was manager interview process took about 2 weeks. All questions were on pm methodology and few on time cost and scope
