I applied online. I interviewed at Viasat (Carlsbad, CA) in Dec 2020
Interview
Very fast responses. I applied in the Fall and heard back in less than a month. Two interviews: one behavioral with the recruiter and one technical with the project lead. The technical interview did not have any hard technical questions but they did ask about my past projects and experiences. Great experience overall.

I applied through university. I interviewed at Viasat (Chennai) in Nov 2025
Interview
Practice DSA, be good in computer networks and operating systems. Getting good command with basics. There were 3 rounds. First two rounds were technical both for around 1 hour and 3rd round was managerial.
Good process, no coding interview, phone call then straight to actual in person interview. Nice office and nice interviewer. They took a long time to get back to me at the end tho and i had to message for them to let me know i got rejected.

I applied through university. The process took 2 days. I interviewed at Viasat (Chennai)
Interview
The process consisted of four rounds with multiple interviewers.
* Round 1: Focused on Python fundamentals, including data structures like linked lists, stacks, and queues.
* Round 2: Covered full-stack development concepts, with a strong emphasis on Angular.
* Round 3: Explored Machine Learning concepts and their potential applications.
The interview process was quite lengthy and challenging. One of my friends reported a coding task exceeding 600 lines of code, which suggests a high bar for entry. While demanding, this likely serves to identify top-tier talent with exceptional problem-solving and coding abilities
