I applied online. The process took 4 weeks. I interviewed at IBM in Feb 2017
Interview
Emailed by recruiter about a week after applying asking if I was still interested. Set up a phone screen for the next week. Recruiter emailed before scheduled date to cancel and offer the link to a coding challenge instead. Recruiter never emailed the link and did not respond to follow up emails. Spoke with IBM reps at career fair and was told the position was still open and to send another email and CC'ing them. Recruiter responded saying they lost track of me. Finally sent the link to coding challenge consisting of four questions and behavioral questions all being done virtually through HireVue. I managed to answer one question but the rest were very challenging.
I applied through a recruiter. I interviewed at IBM
Interview
The first round of the interview was a phone screening. The recruiter interviewed me for about 30 minutes, asking me about my previous experience and background. He spent most of the time describing about the company, job role and work culture. He was very encouraging.

I applied online. The process took 3 months. I interviewed at IBM (Toronto, ON) in Nov 2016
Interview
It was a lengthy process, first they have you do a coding test. Then it was IBM IPAT Test. The second test was the harder part in my opinion. You were given only 45 seconds for each questions and although some questions were fairly easy, there were some tricky questions that you might need a bit more time on. I received the rejection email a bit afterwards.
