EMC Interview Questions & Reviews in Boston, MA Area

Interview Details – All the people were really sweet and great to chat with. They went the extra mile to make sure I was comfortable. I was contacted by the recruiter initially and he set up 2 phone interviews, after which there were 4 1:1 onsite interviews. I screwed up one section very badly..

Interview Details – Multiple interviews. First round was like speed dating with 9 different managers or employees. Second round was onsite with 2 or 3 of my potential managers. The process was not overly stressful, but if you don't really want the job the interviewer will know and you won't get the job.

Negotiation Details – Not much negotiation. The sales associate phase is short term and the real money with a promotion to an inside sales rep.

Interview Details – Recruiter contacted me through LinkedIn. Had two phone interviews, one with recruiter and one with Hiring Mgr. EMC invited me onsite. In Hopkinton i was interviewed by 5-6 people, all of them Sr. Directors and one VP. It was an awesome experience, interviews went really well.

Logistics of my relocation to Hopkinton played a big factor in job offer denial. Overall positive experience.

Interview Details – Initially a 1*1 telephonic interview followed by a group interview by 5 members in a team.

Interview Details – I applied through my school's career website and was contacted around October 2009 for my first phone interview. The phone interview went well and a few weeks later, I was invited to come to Hopkinton, which was in November 2009. The interview style was a round-robin, which is basically a series of 1:1 interviews. It was approximately 100 graduates/recent graduates there for the round robins. Most of the interviews were conducted in one large room where each person rotates to a different interviewer. I did 5- 20 minute interviews. Each interviewer ask different questions. Some interviewers asked basic behavioral questions, and some interviewers just wanted to know more about me and we even discussed personal interests. The ultimate goal of this interview process is to learn more about you and whether you will be a good cultural fit. My advice, although it sounds cliche', is to be yourself and let your personality come through. My other peice of advice is to thoroughly reserach the industry and ask thought-provoking questions as it relates to the company and the industry.

Interview Details – The Manager gave an introduction about the group, and its interaction with other organizations within EMC. Two more 1:1 interviews about 40 minutes each. Questions mostly on the components of a storage system, ways to evaluate the performance etc. After 1:1 interviews, a short session with the Manager again who pointed out the next phases. No word about the salary till this point.

Negotiation Details – I received a verbal offer from the HR, next day of the interview. I asked him to give me a couple of days to think over it. He was a bit reluctant but then agreed. Called me again after 2 days. I suggested he increase the base salary by 5%. He came back after an hour and agreed to it. Note that the negotiations are more likely to succeed for higher level positions compared to entry level ones. The base salary may vary from one group to another as well.

Interview Details – Met with 4 employees. Each one were at different levels. Questions ranged from technical to business. Not very hard questions but, they were thorough.

Negotiation Details – I told them what I was looking for and we negotiated somewhere in the middle. very happy with the package

Interview Details – A quick advice to potential college interns: DO NOT take the college career fair for granted. If you are really serious about working for this company, you should do the following. Show that you're interested by interviewing the HR rep on the spot, don't wait for them to ask you questions. Don't be surprised if HR asks for an in-depth example of your teamwork experience, this is a corporate environment and you need to show that you'll play well with others. Lastly, don't be so robotic in your answers. During the interview process you'll probably get a friendly interviewer and very serious interviewer (I still think they did that on purpose to see how well I could deal with people with different personalities). Relax, maintain your posture, and talk just as if you were talking to your professor. FYI, you'll most likely be interviewed in an open area around other people.

Negotiation Details – Well their offer was competitive with others that i received, so there was no need to negotiate.
