Epic might be a good company for just out of college folks who are glad to just have a job. This is not a company for anyone with experience. They have some jobs that need to fill (Implementers right now) and they want to stick ppl in that, no matter their prior experience, skills or even interest. It doesn't matter what you tell them, they need ppl for a certain role and that's what you are going to get, hence the emphasis on college grads.
I have 15 yrs of experience in software development and the last 5 being in management. Even during the initial phone screen, I made it absolutely clear that I was looking for a technical + management position and not a pure coding one. After a 2 hr coding test, I was finally called on site. to my surprise it was still for a s/w developer and "Implementer" role.
I figured they met lead or something so I went ahead. The interview was absolutely disappointing. I met about 4-5 ppl, varying in experience from 1 yr to 3 yrs. Each telling me what a day in a s/w developer life is. For god sake I've been in this industry to 15 yrs, I know what a day is going to be like. They were resonably smart but terribly immature and in experienced. They have no clue on how to interview any one with experience. One of them ever told me that he normally interviews only fresh college grads so he's not quite sure how to proceed.
What a total waste of time. anyone who would have taken even a slightest look at my resume would have known that they do not have any position for me. They have it all geared towards fresh grads, including the silly SAT/GRE type tests and language and math skills, extremely lame in my view.
This is no company for experience, great if you need somewhere to start, but honestly if you are looking for a career (after having one) don't waste your time.
At the end the recruiter is asking me if I am interested in an "Implementer role" heck no... what part of s/w leadership don't you understand... anyway waste of time...
Only positive is their hospitality. Campus is good, but after having worked for large corps its not anything out of the ordinary.

Medium level leetcode and then a very basic system design question as a final round interview. Overall, smooth and simple process. Only one technical and it was the first one.
Preguntas de entrevista [1]
Pregunta 1
How would you design a system to minimize wait time at a health care center?
First round is a thirty minute phone call with one of their developers. The other part of the first round is a three hour exam with IQ test style logic questions and coding questions.
[OA] OA was fair. Programming part are leetcode easy and easy-mediums, straightforward simulation, backtracking, dfs, strings, etc. No DP/graphs but ymmv.
[Final interview] (Case Study) I think the interviewer came up with their own prompt. It's mostly discussion-based, with a virtual white board. It's not too technical. I'm guessing its testing your communication/logical reasoning than system design skills. (Pair programming) 1 question, same format as the OA on the same platform, leetcode easy.
[Overall] Technical difficulty isn't bad. Interviewers who are current software devs seemed friendly. Had a good experience, yet got rejected.
