      Application

      I applied online. The process took 2 weeks. I interviewed at Proofpoint (Sunnyvale, CA) in Feb 2015

      Interview

      I had 3 Sets of Interviews. First was the phone screen which was your basic get-to-know type questions. Seond was a Skype interview with manager which was questions more on the technical side. Last was an In-Person interview where I met with the IT team and was interviewed individually by 3 people. Overall it was a very smooth process, but I didn't get an offer unfortunately.
