I applied online. The process took 3 months. I interviewed at IBM (Atlanta, GA) in Nov 2019
Interview
Your'e hiring process needs work. IBMer's fails to value you others time. Not only did I have problems taking IBM's assessment test but when I received a phone call for my first interview it was unscheduled and with no prior notice. My second interview, the interviewer failed to show...for this first and the second rescheduled interview. Further more when attempting to get in contact with someone to figure out what was going on I could not get anyone on the phone or respond to any email until a month later.
I have been asked to complete a coding assessment in a language mentioned in the job posting. They said the applications with solution written in those languages will have priority for the next steps

Interview
It is extremely difficult to get an interview or a response from anyone on the recruiting team without having a contact at IBM. I had one interview with a great team but outside of that team there has been poor communication with the recruitment team.

I applied online. The process took 1 week. I interviewed at IBM in Sep 2021
Interview
It was the second interview. The interviewer didn't even turn the camera on. I was asked a lot of technical questions about Java language that was a little unexpected for me. In my resume the primary language was JavaScript. But I was okay with Java too. So be prepared.
