I applied through an employee referral. I interviewed at Epic
Interview

Interview questions [3]
Question 1
"Can you walk us through a recent UX design project you led from conception to completion, highlighting your approach to user research, prototyping, and iteration?"
"How do you ensure that your design decisions are aligned with user needs and business goals, particularly in a complex and regulated industry like healthcare?"
The interview process consisted of an initial recruiter screening, followed by a hiring manager interview and several rounds with cross-functional team members. The discussions focused on my product design experience, design thinking process, collaboration with engineers and product managers, and portfolio case studies. I was also asked to explain how I approach ambiguous problems and measure the impact of my work. The process was professional and well-structured, and communication was timely throughout.
Interview questions [1]
Question 1
I walked through a recent project from problem discovery to launch. I explained how I conducted user research, identified key pain points, explored design concepts, collaborated with engineers, and validated solutions through testing. I also shared measurable outcomes and reflected on lessons learned during the project.
Got to the phone call interview stage.
Along with the phone call, I had to complete a virtual skills assessment that testing math and problem-solving skills (applying layered logic from a fake coding language).
Received an initial call about the position, finished a couple of assessments, completed a take home design exercise, and in the process of the final 4hr interview. The design exercise is given with a prompt in which you must fulfill the requirements in 5 hours or less. You have a week to finish the exercise, but for the most part, it was pretty fun.
