I applied through an employee referral. The process took 4 weeks. I interviewed at VMware
Interview
The recruiting process was efficient. The recruiter kept me informed during the whole process. VMware makes me feel like a potential valuable human being (not only “asset”) for the company.
The recruiting and the interview teams were professional and respectful at all times. They are well prepared professionals and demonstrated business acumen during our interactions.
I was interviewed by 8 people.
I applied online. The process took 2 weeks. I interviewed at VMware (Bengaluru) in May 2015
Interview
First they called me for F2F round on a weekend. Interview had 3 technical F2F rounds. All the rounds were little tougher. Should be thorough in all the basics to clear the rounds. I managed to clear all the technical rounds. HR told me they will get back after 2-3 days.
Later HR called me and told I have cleared all the technical rounds and there will be a formal HR and Managerial rounds over phone. So almost after a week they called me and had both HR and managerial rounds. One the same day they had discussion on my package and others. I was happy to accept the package. It was quite a good package(~35%-40% hike). They told I should be getting an offer within couple of days.

I applied online. The process took 1 day. I interviewed at VMware (Cork) in Jul 2013
Interview
Fair questions that were touching infrastructure, storage and system administration. The process took one hour. It was an one to one interview using Skype. A short induction has been given and the atmosphere was really okay. Some questions were not easy to answer, like 'What is an INODE'.
