I applied online. The process took 3 weeks. I interviewed at IBM (New York, NY) in Mar 2013
Interview
2 sets of phone interviews, one with a contract recruiter, then one with internal HR, followed by 2 interviews with line and functional manager, and then final interview with the General Manager. All were highly professional. Nothing was unexpected.
Interview questions [1]
Question 1
Really nothing out of the ordinary...Job History, strengths, weaknesses, why IBM
11 months to complete the entire process, and 8 interviews, pretty much all similar, all were enthusiasts. then the offer letter is ridiculous, it does mentions very few things. I was meant to be hired as sales it was mentioning the base but nothing about the OTE. so you have to negotiate even the basics.
Also they mention that you will have the car as a sales, but in reality you are going to pay the car as PRIVATE lease and IBM will pay the insurance.
They tell you health insurance is included, which is not, unless you pay almost half fee they will activate one, and you are going to pay the full annual subscription to keep it alive.
The base pay is great.
It was a 3 months process with 5 interviews, verbal offer that I have accepted. Waited for the actual contract to be signed only to be ghosted. After a few weeks HR called to say that the position was put on hold. A major disappointment.
I applied through a recruiter. The process took 6 months. I interviewed at IBM
Interview
Interview. Skip several months. Interview again. Promised another interview. Skip several months. Fill out forms. Skip a few weeks. Interview in person. Received offer communication via email only. This was a six month process and they were not communicative during this time.
