Epic QA interview questions

Originally applied for position of Manager. For whatever reason, Epic shuffled me into trying to go for Quality Assurance (probably as a result of the personality test at the beginning?). I was a bit irked that I'd been funneled somewhere else, which negatively impacted the rest of my interview process. I can understand using personality tests later in the game, but I'm flummoxed that by taking one HR barred from going for the job I was most qualified for. Strange and arduous interview process.

I had very similar experiences to others that people have listed on here so I won't go into too much detail about the well-known hiring process, but I have to say that those with whom I interacted at the company were quite young (and correspondingly immature) and I was taken aback by several instances of a blatant lack of professionalism while on the Epic campus. I live locally, so I was invited on campus to do my skills assessments and my first round of HR interviews on-site. There was zero parking when I arrived, and I had to ask a groundskeeper to help me park illegally so I wouldn't be late for my interview. My contact in HR couldn't have been more than six months out of college and regurgitated standard questions from her cheat sheet, but seemed wholly uninterested in anything I had worked on previously and was not a particularly skillful or engaging interviewer. Most annoyingly, she was VERY obviously paraphrasing and simplifying my answers for later plugging-in to some sort of internal hiring algorithm. She asked about my timeline, and I requested an expedited evaluation process as others on this site have mentioned - she agreed to get back to me within one week, and said to expect three business days at the most. The skills assessments were pretty much what I expected, but the woman who proctored the tests was on the phone in the front of the room the entire time we were taking the exams, scheduling activities for recruits who were coming into town and chattering with her colleagues who kept coming in and out of the room over the 2+ hours I took the tests. Really, Epic? This company clearly prides itself on selecting the "best and the brightest," but I don't understand how they expect to realistically assess that when they proctor exams in such a distracting environment. It was incredibly frustrating, but based on what I've read here and on other sites it wouldn't surprise me if they did it on purpose. Despite the supposed agreement that I'd hear back by the following week, I had not gotten a response by five business days past my interview. I figured what the answer was at that point, but I sent a follow-up e-mail anyway and a couple of hours later got the "we're moving on with other candidates" phone call. I have no idea what this company is looking for, but I would never recommend that anyone go through the waste of time in applying there. I guess they can get away with it in this economy.
