Me postulé en línea. El proceso tomó 2 semanas. Acudí a una entrevista en LinkedIn (Sunnyvale, CA) en abr 2018
Entrevista
I applied online and was contacted by a recruiter the next day. The recruiter was very helpful - she had a lot of information about the position and the interview process. After I talked with her, she emailed me with many tips and links to help me prepare for the interview. There was a separate person in charge of scheduling the interview who sent me the names of my interviewers and links to their LinkedIn profiles beforehand. I had 2 interviewers for the 1-hour technical phone screen. We spent 10-15 mins talking about my experience, ~5 mins on a warm-up coding question, and the rest of the time on a harder coding question. We had a slight technical mishap, but it was quickly remedied. We ended up going about 10 mins over so that I could ask them some questions. After the interview, it took 2 days to receive a decision. I appreciated their promptness in contacting me after I applied, scheduling the interview, and notifying me with the decision. Even though I did not make it to the next stage of interviews, I felt that their overall attitude was that they wanted to help candidates interview successfully rather than looking for reasons to reject people.

Was greeted by a person who basically walked me around the office during my interview, did a couple of rounds with a group on a whiteboard solving a coding challenge, and one to solve a software architecture challenge. Had lunch onsite. And one round of interview with someone who wasn't technical.
