Interview
I had an interview with the recruiter and then the hiring manager. After the second interview the recruiter got back to me and said we would schedule the interview to meet the team and I replied and then never heard back.
I applied through an employee referral. The process took 4 weeks. I interviewed at athenahealth (Austin, TX) in Apr 2016
Interview
Made it to onsite interviews (3rd round) - team seemed generally disinterested both in me and their own jobs. Not sure why I was flown in. May be a small thing - but I would expect someone from the team to take the time to have lunch with a fly-in candidate (I was on my own for all meals).
HR/recruiting is very uncoordinated. Had to engage 3 to 4 different reps who did not seem to just pass the buck to each other. For my fly-in interviews was asked to go out the coming week, only to have HR take forever to get back to me so it pushed out a further week.
Interviewee also has to pay for flight and hotel, and wait for reimbursement - which seems like another uncoordinated (and interviewee unfriendly) process.

I applied online. The process took 2 weeks. I interviewed at athenahealth (San Francisco, CA) in Aug 2015
Interview
One of the worst experience I have ever had. I was contacted by their recruiter to schedule a phone screen. The phone screen went on well and was invited onsite. The onsite lasted a morning and was pretty straight forward and went really well. Nothing tough about the interviews. I dint hear back for about a week so I decided to write to their HR. No response. So I gave her a call. She apologized for the delay and also informed me that a different HR had participated in the interview feedback meeting. She asked me to get in touch with the other HR. I dint hear back a couple of weeks. In the mean time I got another offer. Since I really wanted to be in the health care industry, I decided to check back with them.
The process started all warm and nice and was dropped like a hot potato. Absolutely unprofessional attitude exhibited by the HR
