I applied through an employee referral. The process took 6 weeks. I interviewed at VMware (Palo Alto, CA) in Nov 2015
Interview
30 minute HR screening via phone
1 hour hiring manager interview via phone - personality/situational, experience questions
3-4 hours of follow-up interviews via phone - personality/situational, experience questions
2 hours of 'final round interviews' via phone - personality/situational, experience questions
Flew out to HQ to 'meet the team' - by this point, I felt confident that things were close to final and I was pretty much accepted after spending 9 hours interviewing plus 1.5 days traveling.
Did not receive an offer but was told they wanted to find another role better suited for me.
2 hours of interviews for new role via phone (they tried to minimize interview cycle after acknowledging how much I had already interviewed, especially as it was in the same org)
Did not receive an offer in favor of an internal candidate.

Question 1

I applied online. The process took 6 weeks. I interviewed at VMware in Apr 2023
Interview
The interview process consisted of 5 rounds of interviews, including a panel interview. The whole process took just over a month from initial response to decision on the role. Everyone I spoke with was friendly and expectations/process was very clear.

Tell me about your processes for measuring campaign success.
I applied through an employee referral. The process took 3 weeks. I interviewed at VMware (Palo Alto, CA) in May 2015
Interview
The employee was the first point of contact and he asked me a list of questions. Then the first call was with the recruiter, followed by a phone call with the hiring manager. That went very well so I was scheduled by the internal recruiting team for several in-person half-hour each interviews on site.

Question 1
Culture fit questions were high on their list. Situations and scenarios. Some skills set questions.
