I applied online. The process took 3 weeks. I interviewed at Guaranteed Rate (Chicago, IL) in Jan 2017
Interview
3 Interviews. First one is with Hiring Manager. It was short. Briefly checking my skills and interests.
Second one is a video call with a QA Engineer. It last 1 hour and the interviewer is super friendly and informative. Had a few SQL and Selenium programming problems. After that, I was asked to finish an assignment, which is testing an e-commerce website using Selenium. I really enjoyed that project since it is not very hard but yet challenging and I definitely learned a lot from it.
After one week, I had an invite to onsite interview. 5 rounds. Met 6 people. Everyone is friendly and polite. 2 rounds are technical.
