I applied through an employee referral. The process took 2 weeks. I interviewed at VMware (Bengaluru)
Interview
Interview process included hands-on coding for given set of questions. Panels provided laptop with unfinished java programs which I was supposed to complete based on the requirements, which were explained in readme text files.
Once completed, discussions were surrounding my solution for the problem statements. Manager round also included discussions about my current project, architecture, my role etc. Al these interviews completed in single day.
If these rounds are cleared, HR round would be simple with questions only on personal details.
More time consuming was the process of setting up the interview, getting a response and related activities.
