IBM Global Technology SURVEY SAYS


Safety in numbers

Insiders tell us IBM is a "very open" company, where the culture is "based on individual performance and less on teamwork."  It's also a place where employees feel secure, even as the rest of the economy seems to implode: "While the economy may be down, IBM's pipeline always seems full," says one source.  Still, the sheer scale of the company means that it's inevitably home to a variety of opinions.  For example, on one side of the aisle, some laud the company's meritocracy-driven approach, its "healthy and positive work culture," and the fact that it is "very diversity-oriented, and includes a large range of cultures."

Tips from the inside

What to expect with Big Blue

Given its size, it's inevitable that IBM's hiring process is "different every time," albeit consistently "very organized and well managed."  Applicants can expect to have at least two rounds of interviews, including a "first-round screening interview," as well as one, two or more "interviews with senior practice leaders in the final round."  A third round may also include a technical interview.
