Engineer Interview Experience - Palo Alto, California
Process
Horrible experience with the interview process. It took them six months to move me through the three-interview process; two of those interviews were with their junior staff. After six months, they did not even care to update me, nor did the recruiter respond to my update inquiry. This speaks to the culture and chaos at this company.
