I applied online. The process took 3 days. I interviewed at Epic in Jun 2021
Interview
Applied online via LinkedIn. Got an email from HR to set up a phone screen interview with another engineer and technical interview that would be monitored by a third party system. Got to the phone screen interview, and the interviewer probably sounded like the most dead-inside, unenthusiastic person. The "didn't care" attitude was the most negative thing during the interview. Sounds as if they were reading questions from a script. Answered his questions regardless since they're all relatively easy and common questions. The technical interview was a day after the phone interview, and it was just a crappy IQ test and 3 easy/medium LeetCode questions. The text editor had zero syntax highlighting and is probably the worst way to decide whether a candidate can actually code or not.
Interview questions [1]
Question 1
Describe projects you did in school. Why you want to work here? What would you do different during X project (if you did any projects).
Medium level leetcode and then a very basic system design question as a final round interview. Overall, smooth and simple process. Only one technical and it was the first one.
Interview questions [1]
Question 1
How would you design a system to minimize wait time at a health care center?
First round is a thirty minute phone call with one of their developers. The other part of the first round is a three hour exam with IQ test style logic questions and coding questions.
[OA] OA was fair. Programming part are leetcode easy and easy-mediums, straightforward simulation, backtracking, dfs, strings, etc. No DP/graphs but ymmv.
[Final interview] (Case Study) I think the interviewer came up with their own prompt. It's mostly discussion-based, with a virtual white board. It's not too technical. I'm guessing its testing your communication/logical reasoning than system design skills. (Pair programming) 1 question, same format as the OA on the same platform, leetcode easy.
[Overall] Technical difficulty isn't bad. Interviewers who are current software devs seemed friendly. Had a good experience, yet got rejected.
