Interviewed May 2012 in Bothell, WA (took 2 days)
Waste of time ! Very non technical. I was asked questions like how do you solve a problem! The manager never made an eye contact in the whole process . Probably he was expecting a geek looking guy with a pony:)
This was my worst interview experience .

Interviewed Apr 2012 in Bothell, WA (took 3 weeks)
The atmosphere at vertafore is very warm and welcoming. I was introduced to people and made to feel right a home during the interview process. I was moving cross country and the staff at vertafore worked around my schedule to find time to interview. I was thoroughly impressed each and everytime.
I had a few phone interviews with the hiring manager and one with hr. I then met te hiring manager at the office for an interview. It was very informative but also warm and comfortable. I didn't feel as though I was being drilled but felt as though I could share why I was a good fit.

Interviewed Dec 2010 in Boulder, CO (took 2 days)
Interview question - Tell me about a time where you closed a sale against a competitor.
The work environment is awesome. Very comfortable. Zero micro management. No dress code.
The company is still trying to figure out how they want to handle thier current customers. The company has a history of change. They keep changing executives and then the new executive does a reorg before they even have a clue what has already been tried. Decisions seem to be made without frontline input. A small percentage of Inside Sales Reps hit goal, however those that do, get paid huge.

Interviewed Jan 2012 in Bothell, WA (took 3 days)
This wasn't a real interview, but the experience left me with a negative impression of Vertafore's recruiting organization. They contacted me via a connection on LinkedIn based on my profile. They asked me to send them my resume, which is almost a complete duplicate of my LinkedIn profile but with more details. Then they sent 2 emails explaining to me in detail why I was unqualified for the position. I was completely baffled by the experience. Why did they contact me to begin with? This was such a strange experience. In the meantime, I've received a very nice offer from a Fortune 500 company which I have accepted.
This experience with Vertafore just came off as extremely amateur--and it wasn't amateur behavior from just one recruiter, but two in-house recruiters there. So, if you have this experience don't take it to heart. They clearly don't know what they're doing and how to build relationships.

Interviewed Jun 2011 in Bothell, WA (took 2 weeks)
The initial communication with them was great, I talked to someone in their HR department who was very friendly. The managers and other employees were nice. The manager I interviewed with was a little quiet, and threw a few trick questions at me, one of which I flubbed.
The office looks fancy too, and looks like there is a lot of room for expansion. They gave me a number of solid problems to solve, which weren't that difficult, but that really stretched out the time we spent on the interview a lot. I'm not sure what kind of person they were looking for as I had great chemistry with a few of the people during the interview process but I suppose they were looking for someone who could pass their riddles to their own satisfaction.

Interviewed Jun 2011 in Conyers, GA (took a day)
Very professional and clearly dedicated to team oriented work. Clearly explained the expectations of the position, requirements as related to travel, and implementation process necessary for onboarding software. Was asked what sort of experience I had in project management, training users with varying degrees of technical competency, and if I understood the implications of heavy travel.

Interviewed Mar 2011 (took 2 weeks)
The interview process for pretty straightforward. A technical phone screen followed by an on site interview. The phone screen had 4 people and was 30 mins long. The on site interview was in a panel format. I found the interviewers to be smart and passionate about what they do. They actually are looking for an Architect who is more UI focused (which I was not). It would have been nice to reflect this in the title of the position.

Interviewed Apr 2011 in Bothell, WA (took 2 weeks)
The interview process started out great and then went down hill as it progressed. I came in for an in person interview and interviewed with the recruiter and hiring manager. Both went great! A few days later the recruiter emailed asking me to come in for a second interview with the marketing team. I replied back in a timely manner and never received a response back from the recruiter. It has now been a month and I have yet to hear anything back from the recruiter. The company seems very disorganized and unprofessional. I have no idea why the recruiter would ask for me to come in for a second interview and never respond back after multiple email responses. I think this sheds light on the company and am glad in a way that nothing came of the job.
