Phone interview stage into a multi-hour assessment stage. Phone interview was a general HR behavioral check. The assessment was not super difficult however very draining due to it being in one sitting. Did not move onto the stage after the assessment.
Difficult interview
Application
I applied online. I interviewed at Epic in Dec 2020
Interview
Applied online, got scheduled for a phone interview and an online assessment (oa). For the oa, they tell you to set aside four hours (although it took me around two and a half hours to complete it). You are also going to be monitored by someone the entire time you take it (they can see your screen and video). You are not allowed to wear headphones during the oa, which was interesting.
Interview questions [1]
Question 1
For the phone interview, they asked me why I wanted to work there and to describe a project I was proud of and why. The online assessment was very interesting because it was divided into three parts. First they give you some easy math problems but you have to answer them really quickly. They then teach you a made-up programming language and ask you questions about it (it is meant to test how quickly/well you can learn). Finally they ask you four coding questions, which you can complete with the language of your choice (but cannot test it or search anything up).
Online OA - ~1hr Math + Puzzle Problems ~ 1.5 Hr leetcode style medium/easy questions. Text editor only, no running code.
Interview with current employee - Basic resume questions, life/expectations for working at Epic. Why did you apply etc.
~3 weeks wait before scheduling final interview
I applied through university. The process took 4 weeks. I interviewed at Epic
Interview
After campus visit, received an email from recruiter to schedule phone screen. Did phone screen, and subsequently scheduled to do the online assessment. Did the online assessment; performed poorly, did not move forward.
