I applied through an employee referral. The process took 3 months. I interviewed at Viasat in Oct 2021
Interview
Several weeks long and interviewed by about 10 different people across the organization. Solid process but a little lengthy. Was able to interview with peers, managers, Sr. Leadership and all handled the discussion with great skill.

I applied online. The process took 2 months. I interviewed at Viasat (Germantown, MD) in Mar 2026
Interview
I had first phone screening with the recruiter. It was a phone interview. They started throwing questions at me one after the other without much interaction (as in human connection). This was the very first interview I had where they didn't know and refuse to provide any details about the nature of the job I am interviewing for. The scheduling and follow up all was through digital assistant, hence, I didn't have an option to follow up with the recruiter post-interview with any questions what-so-ever.
I applied online. I interviewed at Viasat (Lausanne) in Dec 2020
Interview
First did two phone screenings with HR and Hiring Manager. After that, had an on-site interview with 5 people (each one 45 min, did not feel like an interview but more like a talk). All the process was very professional.
