I applied online. The process took 4 weeks. I interviewed at Booz Allen Hamilton (Dayton, OH) in Mar 2023
Interview
Mostly an oral front end interview about Javascript and its frameworks, specifically VueJS. Also, some oral tasks to resolve, mostly relating to promises and async requests. Some questions about Python's FastAPI were asked for the back end.
I was referred by a friend to a recruiter directly, and went through a phone screening call. I then went through two rounds of thorough interviews, about a week apart. The recruiter followed up with me to say they'd like to schedule another final interview, and after I shared availability they never replied until weeks later when I followed up and learned the position was filled.
My frustration with the interview process is the lack of transparency. As someone who has interviewed candidates for roles myself, I always let candidates know when more time is needed or as soon as we've gone in a different direction so that they are able to pursue other opportunities. It was a very frustrating experience.
The recruiter reached out to me asking for my availability to schedule a phone interview for the Human Capital and Organizational Development Strategist. I responded with my availability within the same day and never heard back from the recruiter. This is very unprofessional and I would not consider working at Booz Allen in the future if this is how candidates are treated.
