I applied through a recruiter. The process took 4 weeks. I interviewed at Accero in Feb 2010
Interview
Company is owned by Vista - an IQ / Personality test was required before an interview was even scheduled. If you scored an interview, its safe to assume you passed. Phone interview with HR - Phone interview with VP of sales. F2F interview with VP of Sales /w a mini presentation - Offer.
I applied online. The process took 1 day. I interviewed at Accero (Portland, OR) in May 2010
Interview
Before this company will interview you - you are subjected to an on-line assessment. They test your apptitude, IQ and personality. The test is 2 hours long - and it is quite lengthy and onerous.
It was not clear how the tests relates to direct functions of the job for which I applied (a non-technical role).
Frankly, as the labor market deteriorates, many are seeing employers become more aggressive in the selection process... Accero is no exception. It has imposed significant barriers to candidates.
