The HR team at Blizzard is a joke.
I had a phone interview scheduled with Talent Acquisition member and he forgot to call in.
I then decided to follow up by calling him and he didn't remember we had a scheduled interview.
I met the person at Blizzcon and the interesting thing is that he sent the calendar invite via email.
He then requested to reschedule 2 weeks later, got another calendar invite via email and when the date and time arrived he didn't show up.
Blizzard is a great company but if you notice there are hundreds of job openings on thier site, makes you wonder why they can't fill those positions.
HR needs to get their act together and take care of all those great applicants out there.
I applied online. The process took 3 weeks. I interviewed at Blizzard Entertainment (Irvine, CA) in Sep 2016
Interview
Three step process each becoming more In-depth in every level. You first meet with a recruiter to prescreen your qualifications if you meet what they are looking for you ideally move to the next step and have a phone interview. After talking to your hiring manager you likely are invited to a panel interview onsite.
I applied online. The process took 4 months. I interviewed at Blizzard Entertainment (Irvine, CA) in Aug 2014
Interview
This company is predominantly male, which makes it difficult to break in as a female. During one phone interview, the hiring manager had taken a peak at my LinkedIn profile and stated he was concerned I would be a distraction for some of the team. Blizzard is also REALLY SLOW throughout the entire process. HR would continue to check-in with me and state that the hiring manager was still interested in me but had yet to make a decision (even weeks later). I got an offer at another company and decided waiting for them to reply was no longer worth it.
