The process took 2 weeks. I interviewed at Epic (Madison, WI) in Sep 2024
Interview
The interview process consisted of 4 assessments, during these assessments you were not allowed to go to other windows/tabs on your computer and had to have a web-cam on. Some of the assessments felt not applicable to the job description. For example there were riddles in math section, and no they weren't system of equations. They were literally questions the Riddler (Batman villain) would ask you.
On the coding assessment, in my experience there was no IDE, or way to compile your code to test your solutions, which was very frustrating to the least. This could've been a user error. This resulted in me spending a good amount of time trying to see if i was missing something and then resulting to mentally running the code in my brain and on paper which caused me a large amount stress.
Then there is a casual interview with someone who works there in the position you are applying for. That was a great experience the interview called me on the phone. It felt like I was talking to a potential friend, made a comment regarding his keyboard and some other about the benefits at Epic and we had little laugh.
Thats where my interview process ended. Overall medium experience, HR was speedy and efficient with their responses which made the process better. If the assessment math questions weren't so ridiculous and there was an IDE on the coding one i would say it was a good experience.
Interview questions [1]
Question 1
A man goes into a hardware store, the clerk shows him what he wants "here one is $1." The man says i need 600 for $3 dollars.
What did the man buy?
Medium level leetcode and then a very basic system design question as a final round interview. Overall, smooth and simple process. Only one technical and it was the first one.
Interview questions [1]
Question 1
How would you design a system to minimize wait time at a health care center?
First round is a thirty minute phone call with one of their developers. The other part of the first round is a three hour exam with IQ test style logic questions and coding questions.
[OA] OA was fair. Programming part are leetcode easy and easy-mediums, straightforward simulation, backtracking, dfs, strings, etc. No DP/graphs but ymmv.
[Final interview] (Case Study) I think the interviewer came up with their own prompt. It's mostly discussion-based, with a virtual white board. It's not too technical. I'm guessing its testing your communication/logical reasoning than system design skills. (Pair programming) 1 question, same format as the OA on the same platform, leetcode easy.
[Overall] Technical difficulty isn't bad. Interviewers who are current software devs seemed friendly. Had a good experience, yet got rejected.
