First-hand accounts from people who interviewed at EBSCO Information Services.
Senior HR Business Partner
TA reached out to me via LinkedIn, but the salary was way too low for me. I saw a few weeks later it was reposted with a higher salary so I applied, and he reached out to me for a phone call, and told me I'd know the next step by the end of the following week, which came and went with no follow-up from EBSCO. The following week I got a very generic email, though he said it was a "personal note", from TA, thanking me participating in the interview process and "meeting with the team", but I lost out to a candidate who had slightly more directly related experience. The funny thing, I never met with the team. TA got that big ol' response from someone who took a look at my resume, and they can't even create a response that correlated with my actual experience with EBSCO.

Manager
Started with a chat with the hiring manager, then a meeting with the team. After that, I had a step-up meeting with the AVP and then a wrap-up with the hiring manager again. They said I was the last one, and I met with the VP.

Sales Manager
To apply, submit your resume, ideally through business recommendations from other areas of Ebsco. The interview process consists of two interviews: the first with the Hiring Manager, followed by an interview with the Sales VP of the region.

Front End Developer
I had a phone screen with HR, and then a first round interview with the director and a senior dev. They mentioned that if I passed the first round, the second round would be a technical interview. I haven't heard back yet. It was the best experience I've had since graduating. Everyone I spoke with—HR, the director, and the senior dev—was really nice. Even though I didn't get the offer, I'd still recommend applying for their positions.
