Initial online assessment, followed by a technical interview where the interviewer coded while sharing their screen, and I told him what to do while doing "testing-based" coding, which involved writing out the tests that we expected our application to pass, then writing the code that was needed to make it pass.
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.
Interview questions [1]
Question 1
They asked me about myself and my experience. Asked if I knew who they were
The interview was good but it was a bit difficult. There were one written programming round and two online coding rounds There were multiple coding rounds. The programming language asked was core java.
