    안녕하세요.
    Indianapolis의 북쪽 경계에 위치한 회사이고 Team분위기도 괜찮습니다.
    관심 있으신 분들 지원하시기 바랍니다. 저도 Software Engineer이고 HR과는 아무런 관련이 없습니다. Manager가 Team내에 새로 Open된 Position이 많다고 하면서… 주변에 권하라는데.. 추천을 하란건지… 그건 잘 모르겠습니다. 저도 들어온지 몇개월 안되기 때문에..
    제가 도와 드릴 수 있는 부분은 On-site interview를 하시게 되면, 제가 interview할 때 받았던 질문이나 기타 interviewer에 대해서 제가 아는데까진 알려 드릴 수 있을거 같습니다.

      실례지만 들어온지 얼마안되셨다고 했는데, 어떤 경로로 들어오셨는지요?
      아는 사람 통해서 들어오셨는지 아님 포지션을 직접 지원하신 건가요?

      아 그러셨군요. 저도 원글님 글 보고 첫포지션에 지원은 했는데, 절차가 어떻게 되나요? 폰 인터뷰하고, 그 다음 온사이트 인터뷰 거치게 되나요?
      저는 타 주에 사는데, 온사이트 하러 직접 가게 되나요?

      잘 못하는 영어로 길게 쓰기 싫어서 집에와서 씁니다. 저는 리쿠르터를 통해서 지원했는데요, 리쿠르터 통하지 않는것을 더 좋아합니다. 그리고 Phone interview하고 on-site interview합니다. 항공권과 호텔은 예약해주고, 식사는 나중에 정산해 줍니다. 그런데 아마 전체적으로 시간이 좀 오래 걸릴것입니다. On-site interview는 여러 지원자를 몰아서 하는 느낌을 받았거든요. 제가 interview할 때 그리고 그 후에도 계속 interview가 있었는데, 요즘은 좀 뜸한 느낌입니다. 어쩌면 조직변경이 있었기 때문에 그러는지도 모르겠고요.

      H1 또는 영주권/시민권자만 뽑는지요?

      아니면 취업 visa 스폰서를 해줄 수도 있는지요?

      I guess you are talking about new H1 visa support. In this case, if you cannot work until Oct. 2008, company doesn’t like to work with you I guess. But you can try. I don’t know.

      How’s the company business? I heard Thomson is getting downsizing now.

      제가 이곳으로 이사온 후로 많이 받은 질문중의 하나가 바로 Indy님께서 하신 질문인데요, 저도 잘 모릅니다. 저보다는 이곳에 오래사신 분들이 더 잘아시겠지요. 그렇지만, 제가 일하는 팀은 과거는 어떠했는지 모르지만, 지금은 규모를 늘여가는 중이고 그 이유로 새로운 Engineer를 뽑고 있는것입니다. 16, 12, 10, 6년. 제가 아는 저희팀 엔지니어들이 근무한 기간입니다. 많은 순서로 정열한것이 아니고 제가 아는 사람만 쓴것입니다.
      그리고 이곳에는 CDI란 staffing회사에서 계약직으로 와서 근무하는 사람들이 많습니다. 계약직으로 일하다 영구직으로 바꾼 사람도 있고요. 저는 처음부터 영구직이었는데, 저보다 바로 앞에 새로온 사람과 바로 뒤에 세로온 사람은 CDI직원입니다. 그리고 지금 open된 position은 계약직이 4-5개 영구직이 3개정도로 알고 있습니다.
      회사가 전체적인 규모는 홈페이지에 있는 재정보고서를 참조하시는게 좋겠습니다. 저도 그 이상은 모르니까요. 다만, Team내 재정이나 분위기는 나빠보이지 않습니다.
