      Consultant Interview

      3 Dec 2015
      Anonymous employee
      Reston, VA
      Accepted offer
      Positive experience
      Average interview

      Application

      I applied through a recruiter. The process took 4 weeks. I interviewed at Appian (Reston, VA) in Nov 2015

      Interview

      Recruiter reached out and we had a short phone introduction (about 15 min). A few days later I ended up talking to another consultant on the phone for about 30 minutes. After that they asked me to come in for an in-person interview. I spoke to two VPs and two consultants for 30 minutes each. In the in-person interview, most of the time it was just open communication. Although they did ask me about my background, I often found myself asking more questions than they did. I think that they understood that my background was a good fit at this point, and just wanted to ensure that I was personable and had the necessary soft-skills to work with clients. My interview process is different from engineers, who I've heard have to undergo an assessment of their technical skills. Recruiters and interviewers were extremely knowledgable and professional, and the whole process went very smoothly. They were responsive when it came to my questions, and flexible with my start date. Although the company's mission and the work I'd be doing really drove my decision to go there, I think that the way they handled this whole process really pushed me to accept the offer - it seemed like they really wanted me on board, and were willing to work with me. Overall, this provided me with a very positive outlook on the company.

      Anonymous interview candidate
      No offer
      Negative experience
      Easy interview

      Application

      I interviewed at Appian

      Interview

      The interviewer was incredibly rude, scoffed at answers I gave, and appeared to not care at all about anything I had to say. Did not look like he wanted to be there at all.

      Interview questions [1]

      Question 1

      How do you explain technical concepts to a non-technical audience? What is Snowflake? What is a data pipeline? How do you approach a problem?

      Negative experience
      Average interview

      Application

      I applied through an employee referral. I interviewed at Appian

      Interview

      I applied for the functional and technical consultant role. I completed the phone screening and was told that I would be considered for both positions depending on my technical acumen. I expressed my preference for the functional position. Upon completing the next interview, which seemed like a technical assessment, I was informed that I would no longer be considered for the technical consultant role. I asked about my candidacy for the functional / generalist role and was not given a response. I was disappointed that they were not transparent in the interview process. It seems like I was being interviewed for the technical role the entire time and was not given consideration to the functional role at all.

      The process took 4 weeks. I interviewed at Appian

      Interview

      Primero es una entrevista telefónica en inglés y si la pasas tienen 2 entrevistas técnicas y otras 2 de conducta. En las entrevistas técnicas te piden problemas típicos como "encuentra el máximo entre 2 listas" o "recrea la serie de fibonacci". Quieren ver que sepas usar if y fors, además te preguntan algunas cosas de SQL para ver si sabes usar joins y where's.
