Associate Consultant at EMC
No Offer – Reviewed Apr 17, 2013
Interview Details – I had posted my resume on indeed.com and applied to EMC. I was contacted by a senior corporate recruiter and was asked to have a phone interview that week. I then had a second pone interview with a IT consultant a week later. The next step is to fly to Chicago for an onsite interview. The process has taken about 4 weeks.
Interview Question – Second interviewer asked more technical questions than expected. Not coming from a technical background it was rather difficult but I was honest with what I did and did not know. Answer Question

Marketing Associate at EMC
No Offer – Interviewed in Boston, MA Mar 2011 – Reviewed Apr 8, 2013
Interview Details – Had a one on one interview following a university career fair. They did not seem to give the interview chance easily. I had an alumni friend working there who helped get my name on the list. The interview was average, no trick questions. Made it seem like a sure bet to move forward to next level of interviews. Got a generic response to my thank you email. Sent a few emails following but getting no response, positive or negative from interviewer or HR.
