I applied online. I interviewed at VMware in May 2021
Interview
Waste of time.
The interview process was:
1. Call with recruiter. This was great, the recruiter helped find a few opportunities I really liked.
2. Technical interview. This was great, the engineer I was pair programming with was fun to program with and the question was practical.
3. 4 hour onsite. Withdrew my application before this step because HR made it impossible to schedule anything.
I was emailed that they wanted to do the final onsite interview 5 weeks ago and a new HR recruiter would email me within a week. A week goes by, no email. I email to follow up, they say one more week. When they finally email, I had been given some days off, so I let them know those days. Two weeks go by and the day before those dates they reply that it won't work. l then send some additional times. No reply for a week. At this point I withdrew my application. Don't waste your time interviewing here.

I applied through an employee referral. I interviewed at VMware (Ereván, ) in Apr 2021
Interview
An HR from Barcelona called me. That was the first round of the interview. We had a nice talk, everything was fine until the HR asked whether i had any questions. After several questions i asked about the level promotion(how is it done in VMWare), at that moment i had 1.5 years of experience. She answered that question, but laughed and told me to think about learning not about the promotion, because i was only junior.

2 phone interviews, each lasted 45 minutes. Both behavioral and coding questions were asked. Overall, the interviewers were nice and were happy to share aspects of their job. The recruiter responded after about a week.
