I applied through an employee referral. I interviewed at VMware
Interview
The interviewer was very dull and not nice, and he kept asking me questions about ASP.NET while I told him that I don't have experience in ASP.NET and the job description didn't ask for it either. You would expect a company this big would be to the point.
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.
