I applied through other source. The process took 6 weeks. I interviewed at CDW (Vernon Hills, IL) in Apr 2014
Interview
Very good process overall. Lined up a variety of people for me to interview with, and just talk to about CDW and it's culture. Everyone was very friendly and professional. The cultural fit for an potential employee is critical and a lot of the interviewers are asking questions to understand how you approach issues, deal with colleagues, and work as a team (everyone is referred to as a co-worker at CDW, not an 'employee'). Successful applicants need to be able to demonstrate they have the entrepreneurial spirit seen in smaller companies but can appreciate the dynamics of working in a Fortune 500 (265) company. The talent acquisition specialist at CDW was great at keeping me informed throughout the process and checking in at key points. The only improvement they should make is to reduce the time it took to receive an offer after final interview. While I knew an offer was being prepared, the process was very drawn out and would run the risk of a candidate being lost to another employer.

Question 1
No particularly difficult questions in themselves. However, the focus isn't just on what you achieved but on how you achieved it. The company is looking for evidence that people can work openly and collaboratively, and leave their egos at the door.
Team interview with multiple disciplines included. This occurs after the initial HR screening. There are at least three interviews, the interviews are remote and for technical folks often include a test.
I applied through an employee referral. The process took 2 weeks. I interviewed at CDW (Chicago, IL) in Aug 2022
Interview
Very well coordinated. I spoke to 3, c-level executives, and each one of my conversations was very engaging. It was evident they all had a compelling vision of where they see CDW going, and the strong co-worker culture built to support that vision.
