Hiring manager called me and asked very basic C and SATA questions. She seemed very friendly. (More to come later).
They flew me out to Milpitas for an onsite interview.
Onsite interview was a mess. When I got there, they didn't have a meeting room available for the interview. They were looking for a room for the first 15 minutes. The first guy who interviewed me was very rude. He brought a laptop into the room and kept working on it the entire time he interviewed me. Then he asked me to write a program on the whiteboard, which I did. But he kept working on his laptop and didn't see my work on the whiteboard.
Hiring manager interviewed me after that. She didn't have time that day and only interviewed me for 20 minutes instead of the scheduled 45 minutes. She kept insisting that I didn't do any useful work at my current job, which was very rude. There were 3 other technical interviews with 3 different people, which were normal.
I answered most of the interview questions and was very hopeful that I would get an offer. They never communicated about the offer after the interview. I called HR 3 times and talked to her. She kept telling me that she would update me about the interview outcome, but she never informed me. No replies to emails either. I never heard back from them.
