Ford Hospital and Research center Software Engineer interview: a long timeline

The hardest part was the timeline. About three months passed between my application and the rejection email, and the process kept changing as it went.

I started with a recruiter discussion and then a brief meeting with the hiring manager. Next came a panel with the hiring manager and two engineers. They later brought me in person for another interview, returned to my resume, and had me solve problems on a whiteboard. The whiteboard session changed the format most clearly because I had to think aloud while I worked.

The long process did seem thorough, and I could see their effort to look for consistency across stages. I did not receive an offer. The waiting made me feel as if I had to restart my mental momentum whenever another round showed up.

Location: Dearborn, MI. Overall feedback: neutral. Offer status: no offer.
