I applied through a recruiter. The process took 1 day. I interviewed at McAfee in Aug 2010
Interview
The interviewer was very friendly & asked many good questions. Most were language questions on c++ & specially on pointers , data structures. Although the questions were not very tough, you will need to brush up a bit before the interview.
Most of the questions were from Effective C++ book series. Heard from friends that the work culture is very good & they do understand the need for work-life balance
Good process of interview. Great learning. I got to know about this role through LinkedIn and applied through the same. I got a call back from the company requesting to attend the meeting.
The first round was a quick initial recruiter screening. We went over my resume/experiences, what I learned from past experiences, what I'm looking for in my next role, etc. Also had some behavioural questions, like tell me about a time you solved a problem.
A few online excercises on testdome followed by phone interview and on-site interview. The on-site interview included design questions and soft skills questions. Good experience overall. Received an offer a few days after.
