Validation Engineer Interview Experience - Austin, Texas

Process

I was contacted by HR to see if I was interested in interviewing. They said that a phone interview would be set up in the coming week.

I then received an email from an engineer to set up a phone interview. Because of travel schedules, the phone interview was two weeks later. The phone screen was basically an overview of the job, gauging my interest and experience – no technical questions.

A few days later, HR emailed me to set up an onsite interview the following week. The onsite interview consisted of eight 1:1 interviews lasting from 30 to 45 minutes each, including one interview over lunch.

The interviews were all very technical in nature, often with me at the whiteboard drawing diagrams or writing out code. Senior management was very blunt during the interviews, telling me that the job requires a major time commitment and that most people work 60-70 hours per week at that location. Several other interviewers warned me that work schedules are very demanding at this location.

Eight days after the interview, I was called and told that they were preparing an offer. I then had to fill out all of the application paperwork and submit for a background check.

The following week, an HR representative set up an evening call to present the offer, and I was emailed an official offer letter the following day. They gave me a maximum of seven days to respond to the offer and said that I could start work within about three weeks of accepting it.
