I applied through college or university. The process took 4 weeks. I interviewed at Medtronic (Northridge, CA) in Mar 2013
Interview
They didn't send you any emails to schedule a interview. Just call you.
Interview questions [1]
Question 1
The question is not hard. Some basic concepts of OOD such as class object. And some java specific questions like interface and access control. Plus a little design pattern knowledge.
The first round was an online assessment, and the next was about my projects,and asked me to describe the architecture diagram for one of my project as well as DSA questions, in my technical round 1
They take 2-3 rounds including the initial round as well as technical round just to inform you that the position is on hold. Waste of time and energy as they will inform you in the end that the position is on hold.
Good and smooth process and process was fast, interview completed with in 3 days and they released the offer, for the last round they asked for in person interview remaining rounds it was an virtual interview
