Very long virtual question screen before video interview. Would have preferred to speak to a recruiter before the multi hour trivia style questions just to learn more about the role.
I applied online. The process took 4 weeks. I interviewed at Epic (Madison, WI) in Apr 2024
Interview
Standard 15-min phone interview, followed by a skills assessment and a personality test, which was odd. They specifically ask you to have your computer plugged in via ethernet because "the internet frequently disconnects on wireless connections". Why is the personality test soooo important? I didn't have to do that with the skills assessment
