I applied online. The process took 7 weeks. I interviewed at Pearson (Iowa City, IA)
Interview
I applied online and was contacted by a recruiter 3 weeks later. First step was a phone interview that was really quick. I was then invited to participate in a video conference with the recruiter and hiring manager. At first I was nervous but meeting via video conference helped break the ice. The hiring manager talk a lot about the program and team. She asked basic questions about MS Project and other MS Office applications. We also talked about how I measure project performance and communicate status. It took about two weeks to be invited in for an in person interview. When I was onsite, I met with the hiring manager again and a few of her team members. I also met with the director, VP and a program manager from a different team. It took another week or two to receive the offer.

Fairly straight forward process - two round video interview after initial phone call and basic question. Make sure to ask about the org and team you will be on. Everyone is very nice and it is evident they value work life balance. Make connections early on.
I applied through an employee referral. The process took 3 weeks. I interviewed at Pearson (Dallas, TX) in Mar 2024
Interview
Firstly, scheduling the interviews was a challenge from the start. The interviewer rescheduled three times, which I found to be unprofessional and frustrating. This lack of organization reflected poorly on the company's commitment to respecting candidates' time and schedules.
After completing the interviews, I was informed that I would hear back within a week regarding the outcome of my application. Unfortunately, this was not the case. The process ended up taking three weeks, during which time I was left waiting for an update.
