I applied through an employee referral. The process took 3 weeks. I interviewed at Tableau Software (Sídney)
Interview
- Started off with a phone call with HR who asked some basic questions on your current role, salary, salary expectations and some technical questions. Technical questions included describing ping, traceroute, what SQL stands for, difference between drop, delete and truncate.
- Next stage involved a 1hr technical interview with two tech leads. Lot's of networking questions/theory, SQL queries and a DB troubleshooting question.
- After the tech interview was a 1:1 interview with one of the managers consisting of your standard behavioral questions. The manager I was assigned spent more time looking outside the glass meeting room and never making eye contact. Didn't feel very comfortable and felt like I was falling on deaf ears.
Overall experience was great except for the 1:1 with the manager.

takes half a day. When you tell them something they don't understand (example in networking) you might risk them turning very cold.

This is a few years back. Very unfriendly at times.
I applied online. The process took 3 weeks. I interviewed at Tableau Software (Seattle, WA) in Nov 2019
Interview
Started with a phone screen covering basic technical troubleshooting skills and terminology. Once brought in for the onsite interview loop, it consisted of two hour-long technical sessions. One was an interactive scenario with an interviewer that focused on your troubleshooting thought process. The second was a written survey asking general technical definitions and questions on a range of topics, from databases to operating systems to networking. Afterward there was a half-hour interview with a manager that focused more on soft skills and your work history. Overall I recommend taking time to brush up on technical concepts before coming in, just to cover all your bases.
