Went through 3 rounds of interviews. 1 on phone, 2 on-site. All of them went very well. No response after the 3rd interview. I tried calling and emailing and the hiring manager and the manager of the Business Unit ducked/ignored my calls and emails for 12 weeks, before asking for more info. After supplying them with info (and getting my hopes up) I was notified that the position was closed. A huge waste of my time, very unprofessional and unethical.
I applied online. I interviewed at IBM (Poughkeepsie, NY) in Dec 2025
Interview
The two interviewers first described the interview process and allowed me to ask some questions about what the job would be like. They then asked me some questions about relevant experiences I had.
