I applied online. I interviewed at Full Compass Systems (Verona, WI) in Jul 2019
Interview
First there was a phone interview. Afterwards, there was a in office interview and coding test to follow up. PHP was used. Met with the team, manager, and VP of IT.

I applied through other source. I interviewed at Full Compass Systems in Jul 2015
Interview
Interview was an extended in person interview. The interview convened a wide range of topics and included questions that are not allowed to be asked by law. Following the in person interview, personality tests and other written tests were administered.
I applied through an employee referral. The process took 5 days. I interviewed at Full Compass Systems (Madison, WI) in Mar 2018
Interview
It was a full day of interviews: including the newly appointed CEO, the owners, and a peer group of VPs. It would be fair to say that, compared to other interviews I’ve done in my career, this was somewhat unconventional and unprofessional. They seem to place a high value on “likeability/fit” over abilities. I was dropped because I didn’t come across as “scrappy” (code for being too old?).

Question 1
* What was the first concert I ever attended (asked by the new VP of Merchandising)?
* The owner had me sit in a separate conference room, handed me a legal pad, and asked me to write an essay about the last vacation I took. His rationale was that he wanted to assess my writing skills.
