I applied online. The process took 1+ week. I interviewed at Nuance
Interview
i have got a call from the manager at nuance first. Asked me about my background, what I have done in past. etc. Very friendly. Really interested to know what/how I am.
Invited for the on site interview. Four rounds were there. Two more HR and two technical. Although questions were simple , but very specific. Asked me about past experience.
I applied through other source. The process took 2 weeks. I interviewed at Nuance (Burlington, MA) in Dec 2010
Interview
Intial communication came from the hiring manager. The interview was less about finding about my fit for the job but instead selling me on the position. Further interviews where much the same where I felt like I was conducting the interview and not being interviewed.
I applied online. The process took 2 days. I interviewed at Nuance in Apr 2012
Interview
Actually this was a total waste. I received an email from someone in their HR dept to schedule an interview. It was the shortest interview I ever had; literally just a few minutes and only asked a few basic questions that were in my resume. It was obvious they were just going through the motions.
