I applied through a recruiter. The process took 4 weeks. I interviewed at Insight Global (New York, NY) in Jan 2015
Interview
The account managers for Insight Global are very nice, thoughtful people that take the interview process seriously, but are considerate of the questions that you have. The interview is extremely conversational, so come prepared to talk! Everyone at Insight Global is outgoing and friendly, so the interview instantly felt like a personal conversation with a friend as opposed to a strict traditional interview.

Question 1
Why am I interested in working for Insight Global?
I applied through a recruiter. The process took 5 days. I interviewed at Insight Global (Cincinnati, OH) in Mar 2015
Interview
It was very rehearsed and felt fake. Very Greek-life like, which I was Greek and loved it, but I graduated from college, and I'm ready to be an adult beyond greek-life-esque life style. I interviewed as well as 2 of my friends, none of us got offered and all had the same interview experience. It felt very unprofessional, as the account manager interviewing me discussed drinking, open bars, and mentioned a frat party she had gone to in college. Which is cool, but not in a job interview. It just didn't have a good vibe.

Question 1
Started off with general "tell me about yourself" questions.
I applied through a recruiter. I interviewed at Insight Global
Interview
A Staffing Recruiter reached out to me via email because she found my resume through my university. I emailed her back saying I was interested. She called me the next day for an informal phone interview. She asked me to tell her about myself. Then said that I qualified for an in-person interview at their local office. We set the schedule for the next week. Before the interview, the Staffing Recruiter sent me an email of how to prepare for the interview (common sense stuff, which people should already know going into an entry-level position). She also spoke with me before and told me to ask a lot of questions and drive the conversation. I prepared myself for the interview making sure my resume was perfect, gathered my references, and created my portfolio.
For the interview, I was in a small conference room. I spoke with 3 different people and it lasted for about an hour-and-a-half. They came and go one at a time. They did NOT care about work experience at all... In fact, one of the said, "We actually prefer people with no experience at all because they're easier to train." I also tried to follow the Staffing Recruiter's advice and tried to ask a lot of questions and drive the conversation... But I kind of had a difficult time with that because if you ask a lot of questions, they take a couple mins to answer your questions, then it becomes hard to drive the conversation. I mean, it wasn't a BAD interview. But compared to my past interview experience, it was very different and unorthodox. So I sort of wasted my time making my resume and portfolio. To prepare for this interview, make sure you have a lot of energy and seem really social and have a good connection with your interviewers. Good luck!
