I applied through college or university. The process took 4 weeks. I interviewed at Epic
Interview
There first comes a phone interview, during the phone interview, they asks some background questions based on your resume, and ask a data base design question based on their own program, after that you will have an online assesment
Interview questions [1]
Question 1
during the online assesment, there will be 4 questions about programing and algorithm, the algorithm question is a little difficult for me as I didn't prepare well, like the classic black and red chess
I applied through a recruiter. The process took 4 weeks. I interviewed at Epic (Verona, WI) in May 2014
Interview
Contacted by college recruiter, told to apply online. After applying online, was emailed about scheduling an interview within a day or two. A short phone interview, then the 3-4 hour long online test (refer to others description for how the software works). Most of the time was spent during the programming portion which had 4 different prompts for me. The other sections were much shorter (one was 2 minutes timed for quick thinking). Like others said, the programming section does not test your in depth knowledge on any one language in particular, but does require good programming skills in whatever language you prefer to write with. As usual, no way to compile and test your code. After the conclusion of the 2 step process for the interview (phone interview / online skills test), the process took over 2 weeks to hear back. No on-site interview for me, so this is where my experience ends. On a final note: During phone interview, they make sure you are willing to move to the Madison, WI area - so if you are not from the area and are not interested in moving there, you might not want to waste yours and their time.
