Software Developer Interview Experience - New York, New York
Process
Applied online and heard back a few weeks later.
Scheduled for one phone interview. After the interview, heard back about 10 days later with an invitation for an onsite interview.
I scheduled the onsite, but did not hear back (no trip arrangement or anything) until a day before the interview, stating that the interview was delayed by one day. (I was getting frustrated).
Went onsite for four rounds:
- Interview with 3 R&D interviewers - general technical questions.
- Interview with 2 R&D interviewers - same.
- Interview with HR - Behavioral.
And then HR told me I was done. As I was leaving, he said, "No, wait, you have one more." So I did.
- Interview with 1 R&D (I guess manager).
I had a deadline in just 2 business days from the interview, and HR told me I should find out by then, but did not hear anything back. Until exactly a week later, I got an offer! Ha.

Good management - easy to communicate with higher management and business. Salaries/Bonuses/Healthcare/Incentives - among the best in the country. Very beautiful office - this definitely counts in liking your job. Opportunities for fast growth. 20 vacation days - much better than many companies.Cons: Hectic. Need to slog sometimes. Some legacy code to be dealt with at times, but this depends on the team. No cubicles, just desks. This makes it hard for personal matters, like checking your emails or answering personal calls. And your manager, his manager, his manager – all eyes are on you. Manhattan: Commuting time is high.
