I applied online. The process took 2 weeks. I interviewed at athenahealth (Watertown, MA)
Interview
The interview consisted of the following:
- Screening call - week 1
- Telephone interview - week 2
- In-person Interview with 3 different people - week 3. 1 hour each with 3 people.
These were scheduled over a few weeks and I visited the Watertown office for the on-site portion of the visits. They were nice enough to schedule the on-site visits concurrently on the same day to accommodate my travel plans.

Question 1
I was asked to put together an on-the-spot case-study to solve a civics problem (toll booth revamp project). The project proposal overview was presented and I was tasked with creating a presentation that would solve the following problem: how can the state of MA move to a completely automated toll-booth collection system. This tests how you think, how you prepare a presentation, and how you present. It doesn't matter what option you choose, just how well you prepare and defend it.
I applied through an employee referral. The process took 4 weeks. I interviewed at athenahealth (Austin, TX) in Apr 2016
Interview
Made it to onsite interviews (3rd round) - team seemed generally disinterested both in me and their own jobs. Not sure why I was flown in. May be a small thing - but I would expect someone from the team to take the time to have lunch with a fly-in candidate (I was on my own for all meals).
HR/recruiting is very uncoordinated. Had to engage 3 to 4 different reps who did not seem to just pass the buck to each other. For my fly-in interviews was asked to go out the coming week, only to have HR take forever to get back to me so it pushed out a further week.
Interviewee also has to pay for flight and hotel, and wait for reimbursement - which seems like another uncoordinated (and interviewee unfriendly) process.

Interview
2 phone interviews followed by an in person. The in person was 4 hours long. Very nice people, but took them almost a month to get back to me. Not very prompt or professional

I applied online. The process took 2 weeks. I interviewed at athenahealth (San Francisco, CA) in Aug 2015
Interview
One of the worst experience I have ever had. I was contacted by their recruiter to schedule a phone screen. The phone screen went on well and was invited onsite. The onsite lasted a morning and was pretty straight forward and went really well. Nothing tough about the interviews. I dint hear back for about a week so I decided to write to their HR. No response. So I gave her a call. She apologized for the delay and also informed me that a different HR had participated in the interview feedback meeting. She asked me to get in touch with the other HR. I dint hear back a couple of weeks. In the mean time I got another offer. Since I really wanted to be in the health care industry, I decided to check back with them.
The process started all warm and nice and was dropped like a hot potato. Absolutely unprofessional attitude exhibited by the HR
