I applied through a recruiter. The process took 4 weeks. I interviewed at Spiceworks Ziff Davis (Austin, TX) in Feb 2014
Interview
The interview process is kind of long. I had to do a little homework problem, then a phone interview, then a set of interviews with team members, and finally a set of interviews with the founders. This took about a month to execute in total.
The homework problem was pretty easy for a developer worth their salt, even one fresh out of school. They asked me to do it in whatever language I was comfortable with, which was awesome, because I'm a Python developer and SW is a Ruby shop.
The phone interview was not bad. It doesn't stand out in my head as anything other than a phone interview.
The 1-on-1 interviews were fun; I saw maybe 5 people... everyone had me do a problem on the board. There's generally a fixed set of problems that you're asked to do in a technical interview... I was actually impressed that I got asked a real-life problem and a problem I'd never heard before. Everyone was very cool, easy to talk to, and were okay with the fact that I was a Ruby novice.
The founder interviews were interesting. You'd think that you'd be done with the technical part once you got past the last round of interviews, right? Not on your life. The CTO gave me an operating system problem, then left the room while I did it to avoid pressure. I was very impressed that they took the time to talk to me and stress the importance of culture here. That's probably what cinched it for me that I wanted to work here.
