Interviewed Nov 2011 (took 3+ weeks)
My initial interviews went very well and I received good feedback from each individual I met with. For my final interview, I instantly could tell we did not click and was not offered a position.

Interviewed Oct 2011 in Atlanta, GA (took 4+ weeks)
Everyone was amazing to speak with at WebMD and the hiring process was smooth. I spoke with the direct manager as well as had 4 short one-on-one interviews in-house with the key people that I would be working with. Everyone was pleasant, highly intelligent and it was quite refreshing to walk into a company where they knew precisely the type of person, personality, intelligence and passion that they wanted.

Interviewed Dec 2010 in New York, NY (took 2 weeks)
Applied and got a call within 4 days. Set up a date/time for phone interview. Phone interview went ok (I guess you can't really do much in a phone interview for a senior technical position). Got called for a in-person interview. Was surprised to find a computer based skills test had to be taken. But I was a good fit for the position and was working on the technology platform almost everyday in my previous position. I got a call a week later informing me that I got the position.

It was not too tense. I got offered more than I anticipated, so I have nothing bad to say here.

Interviewed Dec 2010 in New York, NY (took a day)
The office location in NYC is great and the actual offices were great, modern, open, and friendly environment. Looks like a great place to work.
I had a great meeting with the hiring manager, he asked relevant questions about my background. It was a very comfortable exchange, felt more like a conversation than an interview. I was explained what the responsibilities of the role would be and the benefits of the company. By the end of the interview there was mutual interest.
Unfortunately, there was a decision not to fill the position. It took a few weeks to be told this, but I'm sure this was a difficult decision.
Overall, I had a great experience and would be interested in WebMD in the future.

Interviewed Feb 2011 (took 5 weeks)
Tough to get HR to coordinate things, so you really need to move things along. I was in no rush, but now I wish I had been as I have competing offers and my last interview with Professional was very interesting. Seems like a great company

Interviewed Sep 2009 (took 4 weeks)
I was impressed with WebMD's process from the first phone call to the three in-person interviews. The interviewers were specific about the job requirements, intelligent, kind, put me at ease and impressed me as potentially compatible colleagues. I was very excited when they told me I made it to the top round of three serious candidates. They said I would hear back within a week or two. I waited three weeks, emailed them, got no response and only found out they hired another candidate when I called the recruiter. She was quite friendly and warm, saying they had just received acceptance of their offer to another candidate. I saw the job posted again soon after and thought it had mistakenly never been taken down from LinkedIn but a headhunter informed me that the new hire had been fired within five weeks of taking the job.

Interviewed Feb 2008 in Atlanta, GA (took 2 days)
Interview process:
I was contacted by a recruiter who set up the initial phone screen interview a manager.
The manager asked me a series of questions about my work experience. Passing that phase I was invited in for a half day long session of interviews. I was passed throughout the office meeting 1:1 with 2 different peers, 3 other group managers. The line of questioning was informal, basically asking general questions about my experience.
People, office and work culture:
The main work area was an open collaboration cubicle environment. Only top management had offices. There didn’t appear to be any cultural diversity in the upper level professional/management positions. I respectfully sent thank you letters to all. But overall, I got the feeling that people were not overly excited about their jobs, seemed to be very busy and they were stressed out. They didn’t follow-up with a yea or nay regarding the status of my interview either, not cool after spending so much time of my day interviewing there.
