I applied through an employee referral. The process took 2 weeks. I interviewed at Groupon in May 2013
Interview
They moved very quickly in the interview process. It was a matter of 2 weeks from initial contact to an offer letter. The final interview was done over Skype and was very laid back. All people that I spoke with were super friendly and helpful. Not only did they make me feel at ease but they also made me feel like I was talking to a human, not someone reading questions off of a paper.

Question 1
There were really no questions that were unexpected. The normal interview questions but mostly just personality questions.
I applied online. The process took 2 weeks. I interviewed at Groupon (Chicago, IL) in Jun 2013
Interview
Filled out application online, received an email a few days later asking to setup a phone interview. Phone interview went well, asked basic questions regarding what I knew of Groupon, what I currently do and told me a bit about the job. Scheduled a in person meeting where I met with 2 different managers who asked similar questions 'Why Groupon?' and 'Why Sales' were two common questions.
I felt the interview went pretty well but I was not contacted again. I followed up 1.5 weeks or so later and was told they were moving on with other candidates.
