I applied online. The process took 5 months. I interviewed at Visa Inc. (Foster City, CA) in May 2018
Interview
Worst HR team ever. I do not know what are they getting paid for when they are not able to accomplish their basic duties like updating candidates on follow ups and keeping track of interviews taken. I had given my final interview in April. Which was great. 2 Weeks later, instead of giving me the result of the interview, the HR said that she missed that I already had my final interview and by mistake she has scheduled another one for me. That made me really angry but I agreed on doing another interview. I interviewed for the second time in their foster city office a week later and it's been 3 weeks now and 4 follow ups. They are just shameless. They dont reply, they dont update the status on the portal they use. This all has taken over 4 months. They do not have the courtesy to inform candidates about their decision after the candidate has invested so much time.
Thank you for providing us with this feedback. We’re very sorry to hear that this process has been so challenging and that you didn’t receive the proper communication that you deserve. This feedback will help inform change as we focus on improving the candidate experience during interviews.
I applied in-person. I interviewed at Visa Inc. in Mar 2017
Interview
In person, at a job conference. One round of in-person interview. The key to having your resume stand out amongst the sea of resumes was to put a personal project, even if it is totally un-related to software engineering.

I applied through a job portal from my school. I was promptly contacted and sent a coding challenge consisting of two questions with 90 minutes to complete them. I was then moved on to the phone screening phase where I was interviewed by two directors I would potentially work under. Shortly after that the offer was extended
