I applied through an employee referral. I interviewed at Electronic Arts (Redwood City, CA)
Interview
Very inefficient and strange recruiting process. Was contacted for a phone interview. I provided dates then silence. I followed up and recruiter said she was out on PTO. I sent new dates and once again silence. Needless to say I declined to move forward. Why waste a candidate’s time contacting them only be completely unresponsive.
I applied online. The process took 4 weeks. I interviewed at Electronic Arts (Vancouver, BC) in Dec 2023
Interview
The first step was Interview Screen with EA Recruiter, followed by a number of interviews: Behavioural Interview 1-1 with Manager, Stakeholder Interview 1-1 with Communications Lead, Final Interview with VP & a VP from another dept that I'd work closely with.

Question 1
Position is VERY data-driven - are you able to consume data?
4 hour interview, meeting with various members of leadership and staff. It was a great experience, however it was a bit too long. would have been better to interview with a panel for an hour as opposed to 30min sessions with individuals.
