I applied in-person. The process took 4 weeks. I interviewed at Pearson (Minneapolis, MN) in Oct 2012
Interview
I had a few calls, took an assessment, interviewed with the Director, VP, and President. It was basic behavioral interview questions. Took FOREVER to get offer--I kept bothering them about status of the hire, and it was always, " we will know more in a week". Scheduling was very difficult.
Interview questions [1]
Question 1
Explain a time that you worked with a difficult person--what went well and what did not?
I was contacted by their recruiter via email to pick some phone screen times. I sent them some times, but I never heard back from them including 3 follow up emails. I refuse to reapply to this company since they aren't able to do a simple follow up with a candidate.
