I applied online. The process took 4 weeks. I interviewed at Epic (Madison, WI) in Mar 2022
Interview
The process wasn't clearly laid out before time. I was messaged by a recruiter on Handshake and applied having never heard of Epic. They require you to send your resume as well as your college transcript to start the process. Next, I took a personality assessment and a "logic" assessment. I thought I did bad on this as it was three hours long and I took it after a full day of classes. Although I thought I surely would not move forward, I was invited the the virtual introduction on zoom and then the "final round" interview process. I did not realize this was a "final round" until I logged in that day. It begins with an hour long intro to the company and then 30 minutes on the specific role you are applying for. Then we were further distributed into small groups and given a mock crisis scenario to work through and present our "solutions". Finally, you are asked to give a ten minute presentation on ANYTHING to a three person panel, one of which is your HR contact.
Although LONG, the process was thorough and at times enjoyable. The people you hear from are genuinely in love with their positions and Epic as a whole and it was very refreshing.

Question 1
The logic assessment had quick coding explanations and then asked you to apply the knowledge.
Interview was 3 hours long. It started with a general introduction of the company with 2 different people, then a 10 min case study on how you would approach a project followed by a presentation on a topic of your choice and finally the interview segment with the HR.
Incredibly long and tedious process; it honestly just felt like whoever could last the whole time got the job, because it felt that much of a test. The "interview" was information session after information session, and the actual interview wasn't even that hard. I think it is highly dependent on your test score.
