I applied online. I interviewed at Rocket Fuel (Redwood City, CA) in May 2017
Interview
Interview process is quite standard. First, I had to complete coding challenge, one phone interview and one onsite interview. In onsite interview, I met 5 people. I really enjoyed the process and Everyone was nice, polite. HR was helpful throughout the process.
Onsite interview had white board coding along with some design questions. Coding Questions were not taken from geeksforgeeks or leetcode. Some Questions were tricky to solve. Interviewers were polite and helpful.

I applied through an employee referral. The process took 3 weeks. I interviewed at Rocket Fuel (South Norwalk, CT) in Feb 2017
Interview
Overall, the process was straightforward and quick. It started with my cover letter and resume submission with a referral. Then an online timed coding challenge on Hackerrank. It was a basic algorithm problem with some directions about OOD and modularity. The challenge was medium difficulty and was kind of fun. Then I had a phone interview with the engineering manager and it was very clear that she read through my solution thoroughly, which I appreciated. Finally, a four hour interview with various parts of the engineering team with questions spanning from DB design to writing a React component.
