Quality Assurance Interview Experience - Madison, Wisconsin
Process
I originally applied to be a technical writer through my university's job board. I got a call for a phone interview, which mostly focused on what I liked about my previous jobs.
After a personality test, they said I'd do better in QA. The personality test was just like any other you'd find, and there was another test proctored via webcam. That one focused on math and had some programming concepts thrown in.
Not too long after that, I was invited up to Madison. They brought in about 10 of us for interviews that day. They gave us a tour and we spoke with people in the positions we were applying for.
At the time, they also interviewed me for Project Manager, so I went through a go-live scenario and had to do a presentation. For QA, I had to explain how I'd prioritize tasks throughout the day. There was a real HR interview near the end of the day, but it wasn't too difficult either.

Able to trust that people will do their job. Annual raises are a rarity at other jobs, which is a nice plus here.Cons: Getting pretty large, and occasionally there are processes that are required that might slow things down at times. Though, at times, the process helps.
- 5.0A company with integrity that values staffQuality Assurance • Current EmployeeMadison, Wisconsin, United StatesSeptember 13, 2017Pros: The company acts with integrity. They truly care about the patients and providers that they're creating software for. I feel highly valued by management. The company goes to great lengths to retain staff. Benefits, workplace perks, and culture are outstanding. Management is very supportive and encouraging. They take time to listen and understand what you say. All staff are continuously asked for ways the company could improve, and suggestions are acted on. Employees are empowered to make changes in how things are done. Your own initiative is really the limit for that. Lots of independence in doing your job. Emphasis on doing things that make sense and getting rid of things that don't.Cons: There's pressure to continuously innovate and find ways for you and your part of the company to do things better. If you're not a natural innovator, this is difficult and can feel exhausting at times. The culture of constant improvement and change means that most changes don't stick around very long. Most new internal initiatives fall into disuse and get abandoned or get replaced by something else within a short time. On the bright side, staff aren't forced to put time into things that don't make sense or aren't worthwhile, so you can count on the things that are truly most important getting done.
