I applied online. The process took 2 weeks. I interviewed at Epic in Dec 2017
Interview
After applying online, I was moved forward to a phone interview the same day. After completing the phone interview, I was offered to take an online assessment through ProctorU (which installs malware). Since I have a Linux machine, they offered to find me a local proctor site to take the assessment. A week goes by, I then inquire on the status of finding a proctor site, I get an email stating the following:
I'm sorry to hear that you will no longer be considering Epic at this time.
If your situation changes and you'd be interested in being considered in the future, feel free to inquire on our website.
I responded to this email for clarification because this implies that I withdrew or because I have a Linux machine I'm no longer considered, which is a dumb reason to not consider a candidate. Anyways, its been several weeks since then and I've not heard back from them.
This interview process is inferior to other companies, which do a technical phone interview or HackerRank. Unless they clear this up, I would not recommend anyone to apply at this company.
Medium level leetcode and then a very basic system design question as a final round interview. Overall, smooth and simple process. Only one technical and it was the first one.
Interview questions [1]
Question 1
How would you design a system to minimize wait time at a health care center?
First round is a thirty minute phone call with one of their developers. The other part of the first round is a three hour exam with IQ test style logic questions and coding questions.
[OA] OA was fair. Programming part are leetcode easy and easy-mediums, straightforward simulation, backtracking, dfs, strings, etc. No DP/graphs but ymmv.
[Final interview] (Case Study) I think the interviewer came up with their own prompt. It's mostly discussion-based, with a virtual white board. It's not too technical. I'm guessing its testing your communication/logical reasoning than system design skills. (Pair programming) 1 question, same format as the OA on the same platform, leetcode easy.
[Overall] Technical difficulty isn't bad. Interviewers who are current software devs seemed friendly. Had a good experience, yet got rejected.
