I applied online. The process took 3 weeks. I interviewed at IBM (Remote, OR) in Mar 2017
Interview
I had 3 interview stages. Two went really well and the 3rd not so much. After the last interview I knew I didn't got the job and I was fine with that. But what surprised me the most. I didn't got any reply till I actually wrote IBM asking for a feedback. I got a general reply without any feedback. They turn out to be very unprofessional.

Question 1
The first interview was really causal with a Senior Manager from LA. It went very well so I got to the next stage with a UX Designer from US. Those questions were more technical and I ended up with my final interview with the hiring Manager in Melbourne on the phone.
medium - ask deep on portfolio, go really deep on portfolio, flow, and logic behind. But the interviewers are super nice and patient, so be relaxed. Good luck to all!
Competency interview was made up of 4 recorded questions based on STAR format where you are have 1 minute to prep and 3 minutes to answer the question. Includes a section to write notes on the side while you complete the assessment, as well as a practice session before you officially begin.

Question 1
Give an example where you sought out a different perspective for feedback, and how did you implement it?
virtual recorded questions, about 5 behavioral that are quite expected. How do you work in teams, collaboration, empathy, conflict, etc.
You have time to prep, and then time dedicated to answering. One thing that was unexpected for me was that it was only an audio recording, no visual so got dressed up for no reason.
