I applied online. The process took 1+ week. I interviewed at Activision Blizzard (Irvine, CA) in Feb 2022
Interview
Not good wouldn't do again, definitely wasted time on this interview. Asked a lot of questions that weren't relevant to the job being offered. This process needs a lot of rethinking and refining.
I applied online. The process took 2 weeks. I interviewed at Activision Blizzard (Santa Monica, CA) in Mar 2024
Interview
Interviewer was uncomfortable interviewing, one could tell they were inexperienced and new to the role. The interview was pleasant enough, but did not feel very productive. The interview was described as being conversational, yet the interviewer was flummoxed when asked reciprocal questions.

Interview
Typical string of interviews, followed by one "tiebreaker" interview, my words, not theirs. All remote, people were friendly and helpful with the exception of the final interview, which felt very irregular.
