I inquired about the Senior Software Engineer position at Netflix directly from their website at the end of 2013.
I received an email from HR staff during the first week of 2014 asking if we could have a chat. The initial chat went well and mostly consisted of asking me what I was currently doing and a brief overview of the position. The HR staff also asked that I looked over the 200+ page PowerPoint.
We then scheduled a meeting with the engineering manager for the group. The meeting with the hiring manager was brief and straightforward. The gist of the conversation was about the position and Netflix.
The follow-up technical interview was straightforward, no-nonsense stuff. However, I haven't heard from them for over a week. I don't think I am a match after all.
But overall, it was a good experience for me to get my feet wet again on the interview scene.
