      Summit Program/University Hiring Program Interview

      28 Feb 2014
      Anonymous employee
      Accepted offer
      Positive experience
      Easy interview

      Application

      I applied through university. The process took 8 months. I interviewed at IBM

      Interview

      Initial interview was through university recruiting. Standard interview questions. Then I had a phone interview with someone who was a former IBM'er, who now works as a contractor and conducts interviews for this program. After that it was with the hiring manager (manager who I would be working under). IBM made all the travel arrangements on my behalf. Onsite, I interviewed with 2 different people in the management position (my hiring manager was home sick that day). After weeks of waiting, the position at the location wasn't available anymore...then I was contacted by the recruiter after a few weeks for another opening at a different location. I had a video interview with the hiring manger and a week later was offered the position. Overall it was a decent experience...but took way too long, especially for university recruiting. After the initial in campus interview, it took 2 months for the 2nd phone interview. Then another month for the onsite interview. The process it self was pretty easy to be honest. Nothing tricky or brain teaser type questions. Since this was a sales type of a role, you had to understand consultative selling and convey this to the interviewers. As long as you are able to do this, you'll get moved on.

      Question 1

      Can you recommend a movie that I might enjoy?
