I applied through a recruiter. The process took 5 months. I interviewed at Centene
Interview
(A 5-month process) Connected with a recruiter through a student organisation event, did an interview, then got rejected. The recruiter then referred me to another team, did an interview, and then I got rejected again. Then the recruiter referred me to another position, did the interview, and I got rejected again. Then the recruiter referred me to another position, but I rejected it. Never mentioned the reason for rejection, I appreciate the recommendations though, but wouldn't do it again.
Straight forward interview process with one interview, asking about my prior experience, prior projects from school/prior work, and to explain some decision-making thought process/conceptual knowledge. Questions were directly relevant and related to the skills needed for the role. Mostly questions about skill-based questions related to role rather than "behavioral" questions.
I applied online. The process took 5 days. I interviewed at Centene (Saint Louis, MO) in Oct 2025
Interview
First round was a screening by a recruiter, the conversation was approximately 20 minutes. The second round met with 3 employee panel for a one hour interview. Overall the process was seamless and met expectations.
