I applied online. The process took 1 week. I interviewed at Netflix in Apr 2014
Interview
Good data structues and algorithms questions. I recieved immediate response from interviewer that I did good, as I not just provided good solution but also optimized the solution and provided correct complexity.
One round with HR. Had great conversation until the interview hit a rock bottom on culture concerns. :(
Interview questions [1]
Question 1
What do you not like about Netflix culture ?
I said the truth and there it went all bad, ( I ws a bit concerned before the interviews after learning about their culture from glassdoor reviews and ofcourse the slides state it clear). If you can take the risk it's a high rewarding good bet otherwise you are way better off few ks below their offering at other better places.
I applied through a recruiter. The process took 3 days. I interviewed at Netflix (Los Gatos, CA) in Mar 2014
Interview
I applied for a position using their online job portal. Further, I was contacted by the recruiter, followed by a technical phone screen. The phone screen was not a blocker and was asked to come onsite. The onsite interviews are 4 technical and 1 HR. The technical rounds will focus on your language skills. It seamed they are more focused on you remembering the API's rather than having an understanding of the basics of the language. Some of the technical rounds are focused on Design related questions. During such rounds, the interviewer seems to be satisfied with your thoughts. However, the next day you get a call saying you do not match the exact fit. Felt like the interviewers are not looking at the thought process, but rather want you to remember API's of a language.
I applied online. The process took 3 weeks. I interviewed at Netflix in Jan 2014
Interview
I inquired about the senior software engineer from netflix directly from their website at the end of 2013. I received an email from HR staff first week of 2014 asking if we can have a chat. The initial chat went well. Mostly consisted of asking me what I am currently doing and a brief of the position. The HR staff also asked that I looked over the 200+ page powerpoint. We then scheduled a meeting with the engineering manager for the group. Meeting with the hiring manager was brief and straightforward. The gist of the conversation was about the position and netflix. The follow up technical interview was straightforward, no nonsense stuff. However, I haven't heard from them for over a week. I don't think I am a match after all. But overall, it was a good experience for me to get my feet wet again on the interview scene.
