J'ai postulé en ligne. Le processus a pris 2 mois. J'ai passé un entretien chez Epic (Madison, WI) en nov. 2012
Entretien
The interview and hiring process was pretty intense. The first step was a phone interview which was very basic. Literally just an overview of your resume and some basic questions - not a behavioral interview. Then you have to take a personality test and then another test. I was pretty nervous about this, but the math and reading comprehension questions were pretty basic (like what you would see on the SAT/GRE). There is a verbal test with Analogies, find the grammatical error, and other fun word questions (takes 20 min). There is a math test with math story problems dealing with logic and reasoning (15 min). The programming test introduced a new language and the questions get more and more complex over the course of the test. (45 min). I thought I bombed the programming part, but apparently I didn't because I got asked to participate in a final interview. They fly you out to Madison, WI and put you up in a hotel, which was very nice. They put on a pretty good show, but after talking to friends and looking a little deeper into the company, it seems as though it isn't a great place to work (even though they drill it into you that it is a great place to work - be wary). The on campus interview is a marathon day so make sure you are well-rested. You have multiple interviews and have to give a presentation. My best advice for the presentation is do something you are interested and and can speak COMFORTABLY about for 10 minutes. Don't use notes and try to bring visual aids.

Glassdoor had very accurate description of the whole process. I did resume drop, did the online assessment, then got scheduled for a role introduction session where you listen to the person who currently has the job to describe what they do. Afterwards, there's the superday online where you will do a 10-min presentation on any topic you like and case study with peers, then behaviors. Overall a pretty smooth and enjoyable experience.

I sent in my application and received an email from HR two days later asking if I agreed on thee salary. First process is you get a role intro, then an assessment test which is like 4 hours. They heavily rely on your test scores and are confirming that you’re a relatively normal and capable person before they offer you the job.

I was contacted on LinkedIn by a person from epic who encouraged me to apply for project manager role, sent me a link, I’m guessing I was scouted because on my profile I was #openforwork And I had some EHR software implementation experience in healthcare in my work history. (About 6 months worth). I filled out the project manager application online, I scheduled a time to watch the role introduction (just a zoom live seminar with some info on the role) and take the assessments. I did send the recruiter Just a question before my assessments asking for how much the role paid, like a salary range even, he replied with a non-answer saying that it is different for every candidate and once they have more information on my background, we can talk about salary.
That was kind of annoying, seeing as they were asking me to sign up for a 3 to 4 hour test for a role that I wasn’t even sure if it would be worth it, especially since moving to Wisconsin was part of the requirements. My last job was remote and I was mostly looking for remote roles.
I studied a bit, looked up some logic questions or questions from the assessment (didn’t find much but a few practice questions online that folks said were from epic hiring tests) I took the assessment and I think I did pretty accurately but I used most of the available time, so speed was not something I felt I really competed on. After a few days I got an email saying that they were not going to move forward with me as a candidate. Seemed like a cool job but I was relieved honestly. It seems like a role for folks fresh out of college where you give your life to the company and they work you to the bone. I’m later in my life and career I don’t really have the energy for all that.
