I applied through a recruiter. I interviewed at VMware (Boston, MA) in May 2021
Interview
So, not impressed much by the VMware communications at all. I had bad experience two times.
Couple years back recruiter reached out me asking if I am interested in the software engineer role. Had follow-up with recruiter, completed test. They asked me for available for the the phone interview which never got scheduled.
Back to current, they again contacted me for cloudhealth team, the role sounded interesting so I said yes. Had technical assessment which I passed. Then had hiring manager interview. All question was resolved around the why I want to leave my current job and why I left my previous 3 jobs (funny thing is I looked into the profile of the interviewer and seems they jumped more than me). Told about having bad work life balance and technology issue and since I am at the start of my career which they did not liked. I end up getting reject saying I am not the right fit for the job.
One advice, don't mention good work life balance in job description if it is not what you mean.
I won't be considering them for future for sure.

Easy task but it can start a conversation on a lot of topics like Data Structures, OOP, SOLID principles, java specifications, and the work of the compilator. Talked about the team, the project and the role of the intern. The people are nice and they let you use any resources on the Internet.
