Applications Engineer Interview Experience - San Jose, California
Process
I applied for a job in San Jose, CA. I had 1 phone interview. There was an on site interview with 6 people and 2 over the phone.
Everyone was really nice. But, everyone looked stressed out.
The offer I received, was terrible and well below market value for the bay area. Do not waste your time.
Microcheap: If you want to hire top talent you must pay employees market value or above. If your offer is well below market value, you should let people know before the interview. You cannot hire in the bay area with Arizona's salary, especially if the environment is stressful and work-life balance is bad.
