I applied online. The process took 4 weeks. I interviewed at Viasat (Carlsbad, CA) in Feb 2017
Interview
Tough interview. 6 different people for 30 minutes each. Many of them asked the same questions so I felt like I was repeating myself over and over and had trouble remembering who I told what details to. I was hired and now I see why they do it that way, but it's tough.
Typical screening call with recruiter, which led to interview with the hiring manager. The interview was only scheduled for 30 mins with a hard stop. The convo was rushed and there wasn’t any time to ask questions. The hiring manager gave me her email so I could at least ask my questions regarding the role. I sent the email thanking her for her time, emphasizing my interest in the role, and asking my questions. The next day I followed up with both recruiters I spoke to asking about timeline, as I was actively interviewing for another role, but I wanted to prioritize this opportunity. I never received a reply, not even an automated rejection. I was ghosted after taking the time to prepare for two rounds of interviews. I find this to be not only unprofessional, but disrespectful of my time and effort as well.
