I applied through a recruiter. The process took 2 weeks. I interviewed at athenahealth (Watertown, MA) in Mar 2015
Interview
I was contacted by a recruiter on LinkedIn, then talked to another few people on the phone. Finally there was an on-campus interview where I met with 4 people. First there was an interview over lunch which was presented as a time for me to ask questions. Then there was a technical interview where they set up a little game and asked me to formulate a strategy and code up how it worked. Then there was a resume review interview that was more normal. Finally was a second technical interview with another sort of game set up. This one I had to figure out the probabilities of different outcomes. The second one was a type of problem I have trouble with so it took me almost the whole time, also I was tired.

To put it in one sentence, Athenahealth’s interview process is significantly flawed and out of touch. Expect 4.5-6 HOURS of rigorous coding round interviews where you must complete fully optimized working solutions.There’s no care for how, or why you solved the problem. Just get every test case passing, and you’ve got a job. It’s clear this company is more keen on hiring a leetcoder, rather than trying to identify real talent. Other than the HM interview, no other opportunities are given to meet your potential coworkers. Expect to hop on a call with a stone wall of an interviewer, and have no intro’s or icebreaker. This was probably the biggest red flag of all.
Do better athenahealth..
