I applied online. I interviewed at UnitedHealth Group (Falls Church, VA) in June 2013
Interview
Contacted by United Health recruiter via email to set up a brief phone screening (tell me about yourself, why are you looking for a new job) that was set for a Friday. Was told that I would be contacted the following Monday, but I had to follow-up to get the interview set up with an employee. I took some time off work to do the interview the following Friday. Spoke on the phone for about an hour... was asked to walk through my resume, why I wanted to leave my current position, my experience with qualitative vs. quantatative data.
Felt that I did extremely well on the interview, but towards the end when I inquired as to the next steps, I was told that the person whose team I was interviewing with was actually not hiring at the time (???????). The interviewer mentioned that I was a good fit for another position and that the notes from our interview would be forwarded back to the recruiter and that the recruiter would be in touch. I received an automated email the following Wednesday from the recruiter stating that I was no longer in the running for the position.
The recruiter that I worked with was not very timely in following up with me, so I did a lot of the leg-work just to get one phone interview.

I applied online. The process took 4 weeks. I interviewed at UnitedHealth Group (Washington, DC) in Mar 2018
Interview
Video interview, followed by on-site interview with 4 different employees. On-site interview was combination of skills assessment and behavioral questions. Also got lunch with a current analyst. Overall, everyone was very nice and this was not an intense interview process.

Question 1
Why do you want to work here?
Writing exercise
Asked about research methodologies and experience with consulting.
I applied through a recruiter. The process took 1 week. I interviewed at UnitedHealth Group in Feb 2016
Interview
Was contacted by a recruiter one week after sending in my online application. Passed the phone screen, where I was asked a series of yes/no questions and talked briefly about my experience (e.g. Are you willing to work for X amount of money/hours, etc.?).
Things got strange after that. The job description and my recruiter stated that a writing test would be given after an interview with the Hiring Manager. Instead, I received the writing test first. I received an automated rejection email two days later; this was after having been sent info about the company's benefits package, exchanging emails with the Hiring Manager, and being told to prepare for a phone interview.
I never gave an interview; the interview process and job duties were not what I had been told. Was left with a negative impression. I will not be applying to this company again.
