I applied online. I interviewed at PTC (Needham, MA) in May 2017
Interview
1/2 hour phone interview, followed by 2 hour in person interview. After the in person interview, the HR person sent an email and said they though everything was positive, but they decided to go in a different direction. I did not reply, nor ask what that exactly meant. A day later, one of my co-workers get a Linked-in email, trolling for someone to respond. I suspect it was because their salary is low and they are looking to get someone more junior. If it's not a "Senior" position, then don't waste interviewees times...I was annoyed. Hence, I would not work here. I've seen other postings from the for "Senior" positions, but in the end what they are looking for is college grads.

Interview
Recruiter Call, Phone Screen, Group Interview and Presentation. Interview couldn't have gone better but the first 3 stages took over a month and there was cancellations and confusion about the role on their part. Was told I would have an answer after the group interview but 5 days later get call that they want to add another round. They claimed it was because it was a critical role but then no one was available for yet another 3 weeks. Could'nt dedicate two months to the process so I declined and took an offer elsewhere.

I applied through college or university. I interviewed at PTC (South Bend, IN) in Mar 2016
Interview
Phone screen and onsite interview. It was quick and easy. The interviewer was very casual. Nothing too nerve racking or difficult. It was a pretty smooth conversation. No brain teasers or anything like that. Questions are very straightforward and generic behavioral questions like tell me about a time when x happened.
