I applied online. I interviewed at Netflix (Amsterdã) in Oct 2017
Interview
Several pointless steps:
- apply online
- have a 1st step interview with HR person that doesn't know what he or she is talking about and what to ask
- if you magically pass the 1st step with the dreaded HR Cerberus that guards COMPANY VALUES then you may have a 2nd step video interview with someone from USA who hopefully knows what he or she is talking about
- if you somehow pass this 2nd step interview then you'll probably have a f2f conversation with some manager or whatnot
Interview questions [2]
Question 1
Totally unrelated to the job. If you you'd apply for the developer position then they would ask you how would you fix a tire in your car. Something like that. Those HRs don't even know who they are speaking with (background, skills) and are super rude.
I applied through a recruiter. I interviewed at Netflix (Salt Lake City, UT) in Mar 2018
Interview
Phone interview of how to change culture. Gave some great ideas, but not good enough for Netflix. I guess that is why they have gone through 2 people in 2 years.

Question 1
How to change and fix culture in UT, nothing about my skill sets.
I applied online. The process took 2 days. I interviewed at Netflix in Oct 2011
Interview
The recruiter was friendly and personable though a bit ridgid in her questioning. It became clear that she had a limited understanding of what the role we discussed typically entails in larger organizations and why. As a result when I asked about some specific programs or company processes that involve HR generally, she was very dismissive and frankly condesending and essentially said - "we don't have any HR programs". It was a waste of time for me. I had a genuine interest in exploring Netflix as a potential employer but after that experience I would not revisit it nor would I recommend it to any other experienced HR professional looking for a place to expand their skills.
