I applied through a staffing agency. The process took 4 weeks. I interviewed at IBM (Amsterdam) in Jan 2011
Interview
3 rounds of interview process, first via external agency. First via phone, second at agency and final with IBM HR. It took quite a while to get a definite offer, but finally after one month I got the green light.
Interview questions [1]
Question 1
Interesting question was to estimate the fuel consumption of private cars on an average day in Amsterdam.
I applied online. The process took 1 week. I interviewed at IBM (Houston, TX) in Oct 2013
Interview
One phone interview, one onsite interview. Questions in the screen process is easy. They are more looking for candidates that are dedicated and show interests of working for them. I have to say the recruiting people are better at looking for the right candidate than I am at looking for the right position.
I applied online. The process took 1 week. I interviewed at IBM (Tucson, AZ)
Interview
There was a phone interview first to check my interest, followed by an in person group interview to test my skills and see if my personality was a good match. They were friendly and professional, and even though I didn't receive an offer, I felt the process was an overall positive experience.
