I applied online. I interviewed at Palo Alto Networks (New Delhi) in Apr 2021
Interview
I applied for the position of Senior Software Engineer. I completed my first round and then got a call from HR to schedule interview for 2nd round. No one turned up for the 2nd round. I kept waiting at the zoom link the HR had provided. After 10 minutes I called HR that no one turned up. She apologized and said she will reschedule it. I waited for couple of more days. But no call/mail. Then I emailed and also called HR but no response which I think was very unprofessional.

2nd round was with 2 engineers, this was a problem-solving round. Given a piece of code, how to improve it (multi-thread again). Only need to write sudo code.
3nd round was with 2 engineers again, a system design round. Not a typical system design problem, more like a real problem in the work.
