Process

I was initially contacted by an Epic Recruiter, who asked me to apply online for the software engineer position. The day after I applied, I was asked to complete an online personality/IQ test which took about 40 minutes.

After a couple of days, they asked me to provide some dates on which I would be available for my phone screening. It took about a week to set it up.

I was asked very basic questions regarding my resume. It's just an overview of your resume, as it's mentioned in many of the posts. The interviewer also gave me brief information about the work culture at Epic and the job description.

After a week, I got a reply that they wanted me to give a remote assessment test at my university. It took a week to set it up. It consisted of a programming test with 5 questions and a skills assessment test where there would be some instructions, and you would need to read them and answer the questions.

Its result took about 2 weeks. I was notified that I was selected for the next and final round of onsite interviews.

It took them a week to send me the tickets and hotel information.

I reached Madison and had dinner with an Epic representative. She showed us around the city and told us about the work culture at Epic.

The next day began with the campus tour, which was the best part of the trip. The campus was huge, and the buildings' themes were awesome. We moved on to the software demo then, and a conversation with a software developer followed it. Then I had my presentation (one of my previous projects, they had previously asked me to come prepared with that). Then I had lunch with other employees and, finally, the HR interview. At the end, I had a 20-minute skills test too.

I heard from them after 10 days that they wanted to extend an offer to me.

I accepted the offer.
