No Offer – Interviewed in Peoria, IL Jan 2012 – Reviewed Feb 5, 2012
Interview Details – It started by simple conversation about the weekend plan. Then the manager started to talk about Dell Service, and what the opportunities are. Then we started to go over my resume, and I realized that he started to get distracted. As I went over my resume, I would stop and see if he would add some comments, and he didn't add anything and that became a dead silence. Because it was a phone interview, I almost thought I got disconnected, but he was still listening. Even until the end of the interview, when I was asking questions, his answer would not be more than 1 sentence. It wasn't that pleasant of an experience.
No Offer – Interviewed in Round Rock, TX Nov 2009 – Reviewed Sep 15, 2010
Interview Details –
Had the first round on campus. Pretty standard behavioral interview where 2 seniors (I had the CFO himself and a senior finance director) asked you a lot of questions going through your resume. Very interactive but it was awkward for you to try to avoid just talking to one person...
Second/final round in their Austin (Round Rock) HQ. Very unorganized set-up where candidates were placed in "booths" with curtains as separators so you could hear other people talking while you were in your interviews. We weren't given a list of who our interviewers were going to be so it was impossible to prepare beforehand (including what questions to ASK them). Consisted of 3 one-on-one interviews. Types of questions asked depend on the interviewers. But they definitely want you to know their culture (big on the whole "ambiguity" thing meaning without detailed instructions you can be creative and still solve the problem or finish an assignment) and their news/big organizational changes.
Ended with a lunch where a panel was available to answer questions. Very casual. They offered us Mexican foods including tacos and all those messy albeit yum stuff. Then a tour of Austin.
I didn't get the job since they decided that they didn't want to sponsor international candidates last year, or this year, in fact. :(

Interview Question – The most difficult and unexpected question was a bunch of "What if" and "An example of when..." kind of behavioral questions. I should have prepared these, I had not and really was stumped and ended up giving them real examples and expressed my honest opinions (not a good idea esp if you are opinionated like me View Answer
