Le processus a pris 4 semaines. J'ai passé un entretien chez Electronic Arts (Orlando, FL) en juil. 2011
Entretien
I got a phone call in July after applying in May for a position that I didn't even apply to but worked well with my skill set. The recruiter tells me that someone will contact me the next day to set up an interview time. I do get a call to come in the next week and a confirmation email the next day.
So I visited for an onsite interview and meet the team, which were a really great set of people. A team of 5 I think with the development manager. Each of them asked me questions and it looks as if they had a set agenda of what they planned to accomplish in the interview.
First I was asked about my education and employment experience, then technical questions (C#, SQL, Concurrency, OO Principles etc.), then questions about teamwork, constant changes in requirements, and time management. Next they asked if I had any specific questions. And that was the whole interview and it only took an hour, which is was the whole time allotted.
Finally I needed to take the skills test (which apparently takes 3 hours) but apparently IT was having computer issues so HR said they would email it to me. I sent everyone thank you notes the next day and asked the talent coordinator when I would expect to get an email for the test. I asked once a week for a month and then two weeks later I asked if I was still being considered for the position because I haven't received anything yet and the position is still posted... No reply so I called, and was told someone should be getting in touch with me the next day and she gave me a number just in case...no call so I called and left a message. I sent her an email, no reply. I called again (a week after my message and email) and it now goes straight to voicemail. How crummy! After some research I now know that EA is pretty notorious for leaving people in the dark, it's like they never applied for a job before!
The position is stil posted, so maybe they just haven't updated the site yet.

My process was a little weird, since I was redirected from another process that also took place with Electronic Arts (for a .NET Software Engineer - Full Stack role that didn't turn out).
Regarding the ASE role, since I had already been contacted in an initial call with RRHH for the previous process, I didn't have that step and directly had an initial talk with the Technical Director and two members of the team. A couple of days later, I was contacted again in order to have a technical interview the next week, with the same members of the team. The technical test went pretty good, so that same afternoon they sent me an email asking if I had other offers on the table.
In another couple of days, I had a short talk with RRHH during which they made me an offer. At the end of that same week, I had a zoom meeting where we reviewed the offer details, and as a final (and a little stressing) stage, they asked me to submit five references from people who had worked with me in the past, as a final requirement to be able to sign the offer and proceed with the hiring process.
Questions d'entretien [1]
Question 1
In the initial interview, they asked me behavioral questions (what would I do if asked to work overtime, or if a superior told me that the code I was trying to submit wasn't good enough), and also very scarce technical questions (what is a stack overflow, the difference between virtual and abstract class, and the main difference between C++ and C#).
The technical interview consisted of fixing localization bugs present in a code that they shared at that moment.
