it was straightforward. The people who interviewed me were knowledgeable on their field. There was no "gotcha" attempt or whatsoever or any trick question during the whole time.

Question 1
How do you prioritize work and get alignment on a roadmap?
The process took 6 months. I interviewed at Wellmark (Des Moines, IA) in Mar 2010
Interview
It took forever for them to make a decision on hiring---six months from the date of phone interview to job offer. The phone interview was easy. However, I waited several months to get an "in person" interview. The in person interview was with 4 levels of management---seemed like overkill to me.

Question 1
The VP didn't ask many questions...mainly warned me that insurance companies are not well liked by the general public.
