First-hand accounts from people who interviewed at NIC.
Project Manager
A third-party recruiter reached out and set up a screening call quickly. Following that, I had a Zoom interview with the hiring manager, and then another with the hiring manager and a VP. I didn't have a formal take-home assignment, but I did need to provide examples of completed projects. The last stage was a group chat over Zoom with several people. References were checked, and they contacted them within a couple of days. While each part was a bit different, the overall vibe was very conversational and relaxed, not too formal. They asked typical behavioral questions like 'tell me about a time when you…', but mostly, we just had an easy chat about my background and my questions about the company and role. Each meeting was about an hour, though it might have been shorter if I hadn't asked so many questions. It was a really good experience, much more chill than other tech places I've interviewed at.

I got the interview through an IT Consulting Company. I interviewed for one position and the person I interviewed with didn't think I was a good fit so they recommended another position in the company and I interviewed with someone else.
- Can you tell me about how you interact with your project team and ensure they stay on track?

It was a group interview with people from different departments and with various levels of expertise. The interviewers were personable and the environment was professional yet relaxed and welcoming. Questions ranged from skillset to experience to hobbies. It wasn't a stressful interview.
