Difficult Interview – Overall Neutral Experience – No – Tue, 11 Nov 2014
Interviewed Nov 2014 in Cupertino, CA(took 20 days)
Stood up on the first phone interview,this got rescheduled a couple times. Got through phone interview and got scheduled for onsite. Booking the itinerary was very convenient, very smooth process. Onsite I was told 12 interviews,30 mins each and also 1 hour lunch interview. Was given a bottle of water in the beginning. The interviews were all technical, were overall OK. Couple interviewers were not friendly and imo rude, they wanted answers really quick and did not want to give time to think. This was the most stressful experience I have ever had in any interview. Only 2 people asked if I needed a restroom break..later in the day i was super thirsty and was told to get water fr the tap in their kitchen area..take your own bottle if you can! Lunch was not really a break, it was constant interview questions. The junior members were really nice to talk to and asked more relevant real world questions,problem solving type but the senior folks were stuck in the books and asked fundamentals in depth. The hiring manager was more arrogant and was obvious from the beginning that he would give me a hard time..still not sure why!
