I applied online. The process took 5 weeks. I interviewed at IBM (Herndon, VA) in Feb 2019
Interview
The notified me last minute but it was really relaxed. They were flexible about me doing a phone interview rather than a video call. It was a good experience as it was my first interview
The interview process can vary by company and role, but most follow a fairly standard sequence. Here’s what you can generally expect:
You submit your application (resume, cover letter, portfolio if relevant). A recruiter or hiring manager reviews it to see if your background matches the role.
It’s very easy, was a quick call, and they asked about behavioral questions and skills. Told me that if they liked my profile they would call me in the next days.
The interview process was a positive experience overall—well organized, professional, and welcoming. Communication was clear throughout, and the interviewers created an open, respectful environment that made it easy to have a genuine conversation.
