I applied through university. The process took 2 weeks. I interviewed at UnitedHealth Group (New Brunswick, NJ) in Feb 2015
Interview
The company was visiting my University in late January. I spoke to a representative and he seemed to like my resume but was on the fence about my technical background. He decided to give me an online digital interview. After applying on their website, I was invited to interview. The interview is 8 questions and needs to be completed within 48 hours of receiving the invitation. You are given 30 seconds of prep time for each question and 3 minutes to answer.

I applied through a recruiter. The process took 5 weeks. I interviewed at UnitedHealth Group (Minnetonka, MN) in Feb 2015
Interview
The interview was over your own computer webcam answering questions that come up on your screen. I knew exactly what to say for each question, but talking to myself threw me off so much that it made me pause and hesitate.
