I applied through a recruiter. I interviewed at Guidewire (Bedford, NH)
Interview
It was a gauntlet of demanding questions and interviews. I had to go through three separate interviewers of different backgrounds. Cultural fit was a big portion of the decision even though this was a highly technical and diverse job for which I was applying.
I applied online. The process took 2 weeks. I interviewed at Guidewire (Chicago, IL) in Mar 2013
Interview
Phone screen; Phone interview; Written skill test in Java and SQL; F2F in Chicago
Phone screen was a general interview with technical questions regarding XML and SQL. Written was very easy, had some Java, SQL and SQL DB design related questions. XML that needed to be built required insurance knowledge. Regarding DB design, there could be multiple solutions.
