I applied through an employee referral. The process took 4 weeks. I interviewed at CGI (Fairfax, VA) in July 2016
Interview
The interview process was relatively straight forward. They already know about your background based on the resume you submitted and I believe most of the interview focused on getting to know you and your work habits--how you fit with the rest of the team. There were a few financial-type questions, but it mostly related to what you have done in the past and listed on your resume or verbally mentioned in the interview.
