I applied online. The process took 3 weeks. I interviewed at Pearson in Feb 2012
Interview
I applied online through Career Builder, I think. I then received an email from HR wanting to set up a 30 min phone screen with me. The phone screen consisted of talking about my PM experience. The next week, I got another email from HR telling that they wanted to move forward with a 30 min technical phone interview with a project manager. The questions were straightforward, both general and situational. They all dealt with my experience around project managememt. The following week, HR invited me to an onsite interview to meet a few others from the team - the project manager, a developer and the architect. It was a panel interview so they each asked me questions, it was pretty informal. When it was over, I met the manager of the team who wanted to know more about me. Ultimately, I did not get the position as they went with an internal candidate. Still a positive experience. No regrets.
