VMware Interview Questions

Interview

The interview process was friendly and insightful. While I did not progress through to the second round, it was a normal LeetCode problem where they asked me to describe, whiteboard, then code a solution to a problem that they defined. Their communication and support before and after were very good.

Application

I applied through an employee referral. I interviewed at VMware.

Interview

Phone call with recruiter, day of interviews with engineers and PMs. Given the seniority of my position there were no coding questions. No gotchas' type questions either. Overall it felt fair

Interview

Positive experience over all. One phone screen with a recruiter and two face to face video interviews with a manager. First video interview was technical second was behavioral and asked about situational experiences.

There were 2 rounds (1 hour each)
Easy to medium Leetcode Questions.
Focus more on the past experience and University Projects. Also tests over all Computer Science Fundamentals and Machine Learning Funamentals

Application

I applied through an employee referral. The process took 6+ weeks. I interviewed at VMware in February 2021.

Interview

Process took about 6 weeks. I was submitted as an employee referral. Phone interview with a recruiter in early December. Early January I had a call with the hiring manager, a week later I had an interview with a manager from another department, the following week I had a panel interview with the team members I would be working with. The 4th interview was with the hiring manager from the first interview and she offered me the position. Each interview was very informal and laid back, made it easier to open up and show my personality.

Application

I applied online. I interviewed at VMware in February 2021.

Interview

Starts with a hackerrank, then a questionnaire, followed by a technical interview. The interview was done in 3 parts with 3 different people. Each person asked a mix of behavioral and technical questions.

Interview

Straight forward process. Applied online, interviewer reached out to schedule a phone screening. Second interview was with a portfolio review with a designer, and third interview was another portfolio review with a manager.

Interview

Interviewed the hiring manager. Asked several general questions how i would troubleshoot a reported problem. Question was too broad. Since job description included linux administration I described the steps to troubleshoot a problem at the linux level. At the end of interview he explained that they do not get access to the linux machines, that they only manage the virtual machines. Why include linux administration as part of the job description then? By the end I realized that he probably meant from the network perspective. Why not ask that question directly ?

Interview

The interview was a basic tree traversal question with a little bit of an oop twist. There was a little bit of follow-up but the majority of the interview was this one question.
