I applied online. The process took 3 weeks. I interviewed at Epic in Nov 2019
Interview
I applied online and was then asked to complete an online proctored test. This test was very difficult because it had sections that related to their technical software even though that is very unrelated to the position I was applying for. Then, they set up a phone interview with a current project manager. The project manager was nice and willing to answer any of my questions but he didn't ask about my qualifications. He asked a few questions like why i chose my college, but nothing about prior job experience or what made me qualified for the position. The phone interview lasted about 30 minutes and then I had to wait the full two weeks to hear that I did not make it to the next step of the interview process which I believe is the in person presentation.
Interview was 3 hours long. It started with a general introduction of the company with 2 different people, then a 10 min case study on how you would approach a project followed by a presentation on a topic of your choice and finally the interview segment with the HR.
Incredibly long and tedious process; it honestly just felt like whoever could last the whole time got the job, because it felt that much of a test. The "interview" was information session after information session, and the actual interview wasn't even that hard. I think it is highly dependent on your test score.
