I applied through a recruiter. I interviewed at VMware (San Jose, CA)
Interview
The interview process was a bit of a stretch with 1 coding test, 2 phone screens, and 4 onsite interviews. The onsite interviews were hard level problems.
For the onsite interviews, the interviewers had no idea about which level they were hiring for and whether it was an onsite interview or a phone round. I wasn't happy with this approach and questions seemed far fetched for the level I was applying for.
casual, difficult, long. recruiter interview, hiring manager interview, pairing engineering exercise, play ping pong, get breakfast, salary discussion, salary negotiation, offer, contract, 6h in total. the process took 2 weeks. All pretty standard
I applied online. I interviewed at VMware (San Francisco, CA)
Interview
It was very friendly and positive. They have an amazing benefits package. I made it thru two rounds of interviews. They followed up with a phone call instead of a rejection letter. It was a positive experience.
