Quality Assurance Engineer Interview Experience - Costa Mesa, California

September 1, 2011
Neutral ExperienceNo Offer

Process

Two interviews with two Functional Verification Test managers.

First, I set up an hour-long phone interview. They asked me about my current role on my team, questions about previous projects, and an explanation of what the job responsibilities consist of. The manager called me a week later saying they had selected me for the position.

During this time, a second manager called me on my office number and gave me a quick 10-minute on-the-spot interview. They asked what I did on my team, and he told me I was exactly what he was looking for.

I never got an offer from either of them. There's a lot of politics at play at IBM. Don't believe anyone until you have an offer!
