Process
You must first do a phone interview, then an IQ/logic/coding test.
The test is, in my opinion, the most important factor to get you into the next round.
The next round is an on-site interview at their headquarters, where I had to describe one of my projects.
They also required professional preferences.
I was slow in getting my preferences, which is why I think I was rejected.

Nice people, good pay. The work was uninteresting to me
Software Developer • Former Employee
Verona, Wisconsin, United States
June 1, 2023
Pros: Everyone I had to deal with was friendly, understanding, and generally pleasant to work with. I didn't experience anything close to the "work you to the bone" stories that are often told about Epic. The campus is very nice, and you are allowed to work pretty much wherever you want, giving it a nice university-like feel.
Cons: The codebase is massive and bloated. Much of the work is wrangling this and handling tickets. Also, the training period is incredibly long and doesn't have that much to do with your actual work. I love school and don't mind exams, but I really did not enjoy the training.
