I applied through college or university. The process took 5 months. I interviewed at NIKE (Pittsburgh, PA) in Oct 2014
Interview
Got a campus interview for an internship after meeting the recruiters at a career fair. Got a positive feedback, politely emailed back asking after two weeks. The recruiter explained they are still finishing up their full time candidates, and promised to email back.
After two more weeks, I emailed back asking for a followup, turns out the recruiter left NIKE, and spoke with the interviewer (project manager at Nike). He apologized and referred me to another recruiter.
This is where it gets interesting. Three times out of the total 5 emails that I sent to her, she didn't reply in more than 3 days until I sent her another. Then finally after scheduled an phone call with her, she told me that the position I was interviewing for was filled and that she is going to gather current available intern positions and get back to me. That was more than a month ago, after that I just gave up.
Despite having great project managers as their interviewers, Nike's recruiting process is horrible. If their recruiters quit, all the candidates under that recruiter will probably be lost. Even when a recruiter is working full time, God knows what that recruiter is doing during his/her work hours.
What a waste of my time.
The interview process consisted of two technical rounds followed by one managerial round. I did not receive an offer after the process, but the overall experience was positive. The recruiter contacted me, and within three days the interviews were scheduled, which reflected an efficient hiring process. All the interview panelists were professional, supportive, and approachable throughout the discussions. They asked relevant questions, provided clarification whenever needed, and created a comfortable environment that allowed me to express my thoughts confidently. Even though the outcome was not favorable, I appreciated the experience and the opportunity to interact with the team.
There are several rounds of technical interviews with different senior engineers and the hiring manager on the team. A minimum of one behavioral interview where it is very important to highlight why Nike compared to other companies specifically.
Recruiter screen then technical interview (classic leetcode style questions) then an Engineering expertise (work history and technologies used) interview and Behavioral (how you work with people and approach situations) interview
