I applied through an employee referral. The process took 1 day. I interviewed at ION Geophysical
Interview
Very gentle interviews. No technical drills at all. The interviews are one-to-one. They hardly ask any technical questions. It seems they trust the employee who brought your resume in. So, if they have an opening and if you have a friend who is in some good position there, then you can almost be sure that you get hired by them. I never see anyone hired through a recruiter there.
I applied through a staffing agency. The process took 2 weeks. I interviewed at ION Geophysical (Edinburgh, Scotland) in Jun 2013
Interview
The interview was very technical and professional. A lot of questions related to knowledge about software engineering, software development life cycle, programming languages and so. Good atmosphere, lack of tricky questions, just technical. Interviewers were prepared for the meeting and did their job well. Whole time spent on interviews was about 2 hours
