I applied online. The process took 2 weeks. I interviewed at CDW in May 2024
Interview
HR emailed me, I answered back. HR rescheduled because she was out of office the day I said I want to interview. Rescheduled no problem, Did my interview, doesn't answer my follow up. Very disappointed by their HR.
I applied through an employee referral. I interviewed at CDW (Chicago, IL)
Interview
I was referred by another employee and heard back for an interview within a week or so if I remember correctly. Multiple culture fit / interpersonal interviews and a technical. Everything was fully remote, but pretty standard as far as interviews go. What stood out however was the quick communication and decision making compared to other interview processes. I had a recruiter to answer any questions along the way, and everyone involved was transparent with the process and any feedback.
Interview questions [1]
Question 1
There was the standard "describe a time" type of questions for most of the non technical interviews. Since this role involves an immense amount of learning, the technical questions covered more fundamental concepts. I was asked to do a for loop, but the majority of the questions didn't require much more coding than that. There was one back end concept that I was unfamiliar with so be sure to think full stack in your preparations. Also as a future consultant your ability to navigate a question you aren't familiar with will shine here.
