EAB interview questions

I applied via Linkedin not for any specific role, but was later called up to submit a reference letter so I faxed one in. A couple months later, they contacted me for a phone interview and I was met by their manager and DA and Software Engineer. Then a couple of weeks later, I was contacted solely by the technical team and asked some java related questions to guage my skills. I was offered a position the next day.

The application and interview process was a little enigmatic. I applied online for an analyst position, and received an email about a week later saying that they would like to interview me over the phone for a consulting position. I had a pleasant experience scheduling the phone interview, which occurred about a week later. The interview took about 30 minutes and consisted of simple questions about my educational background, my research experience, and my familiarity with the company. The HR representative was very friendly and I left the interviewing thinking that it went well. She told me that she would report back to the rest of the career management team, and I should heard back from them in about a week with a decision. About two weeks later, I received an email saying that I was not going to move forward in the interview process for the analyst position, which was the original position that I applied for, not the position that I interviewed for. I was very confused by the email, so I sent a message to the HR representative for clarification. She said that the email I received was just for the analyst position and that they were still working things out on their end in terms of finding the right position for me. Needless to say, I received another email about 2 weeks later saying that they could not offer me a position at this time.
