A recruiter contacted me on LinkedIn. I followed up by email with my resume. They then requested a phone call.

The phone call consisted of them verifying my willingness to relocate and consider a full-time position. There was no culture interview, and no new information was communicated beyond what was on my resume. I received a minimal sales pitch that Netflix was awesome and paid well.

There was no follow-up technical interview, and it took an extra day for them to get back to me. Netflix contacted me; they had my resume for a week. They requested I prepare by reviewing 150 slides, which I did. The process took up at least an hour of my time and was a complete waste for everyone involved. This would be less of an issue if I were proactively sending out my resume, but they instigated this process, not me.

This experience stands in contrast to Google (and others), who have been very professional, concise, positive, and haven't wasted my time.
