I applied online. I interviewed at Pearson in June 2017
Interview
The HR Representative I spoke with was very helpful at the beginning of the process and kept in contact. However, the person I spoke with to interview for the position via the phone was not as personable. They asked many questions and seemed annoyed and would sign on the other end of the phone as I was answering. I did not hear back for two weeks, and emailed HR multiple times before finally receiving a rejection email.

Phone interview with two team members followed by in person interview on site with manager that was about half an hour. It was a pretty standard interview and it was held at a university campus.
I was contacted for an interview and set one up for the upcoming Friday. I got no email confirmation back regarding the interview date. Friday morning, I received an email saying the availability had changed... even though I had never gotten a confirmation on the availability. We reschedule for 2:30 pm....... not sure if it was the same day or the following Friday, but I was prepared anyway. I got a call on Monday... not even on a "Friday" we agreed to. I received a follow up email with "per our emails" even-though Monday was never mentioned. The recruiter also asked for a new date to call. I point out that Monday was never discussed and send a new time for Wednesday. She replies and then again asks when I am free.... although I just told her Wednesday. Terrible experience. I cancelled everything.
It was long and a bit tedious. There were multiple rounds of interviews and long stretches between interviews so I was never totally sure if they were still interested or not.
