I applied online. The process took 4 days. I interviewed at IBM (Atlanta, GA) in Sep 2016
Interview
I received an email from IBM saying I was approved to take their coding challenge which took around 4 hours. The coding challenge included a video interview. You start with a video interview and you are given roughly a minute and a half to prepare your response and five minutes to record your response in one take. After a few interview questions, you move onto the coding challenge which consists of three questions which take about an hour and a half each.
Interview questions [1]
Question 1
Why do you want to work at IBM? What skills do you bring on to the team? Also coding challenge.
Technical tests on top of technical tests without ever hearing from an actual person, and receiving your rejection email 4 months later from an AI agent using a prewritten script.
This was the first virtual interview I had, and the interviewer didn't ask me any questions instead he asked me to give an impromptu presentation on a project that I worked on. For the first interview it would have been nice to get a heads-up to create a presentation or be prepared to start coding a project in front of someone.

Question 1
Open a text editor and start going through and coding a project you worked on.
The first round was a behavioral interview where they asked about my background, my hobbies, and my early career plans. They asked about a project listed in one of my work experiences, but the project was related to the work of the role.
