Senior Software Engineer at MarkLogic
Accepted Offer – Interviewed in San Carlos, CA Apr 2011 – Reviewed Jun 2, 2011
Interview Details –
I went to the university employment information session. Then, on the next day, I was interviewed by two software engineers from MarkLogic at my University recruiting center. I was contacted within 2 days and offered for onsite interview. It took one week to get the VISA. After that I went to their California office for on site interview. It was a day long interview. I was interviewed by six people individually. All of them are technical in nature. At the last stage, I was given six technical question with one hour to answer.
The most important thing is that the interview and result of the interview is superfast. I was offered on the next day of my interview.
Interview Question – How do you implement the singleton pattern in multithreaded environment? Answer Question
Negotiation Details – They keep the door open for feasible negotiation.

Senior QA Engineer at MarkLogic
No Offer – Interviewed in San Carlos, CA Sep 2009 – Reviewed Oct 24, 2009
Interview Details –
I received a call from one of their recruiters/HR. Had a phone interview with her where she asked me some basic technical questions and some general behaviour questions. After that, she setup a phone interview with the hiring manager. Talked with the hiring manager where she asked a lot of questions related to day to day activities of a QA engineer and at the end she emailed me a so called homework which consisted of installing their XML server and writing some scripts to retrieve information from the server. After I finished the homework, I had a 1:1 interview with several members of the company (QA engineer, VP of people, QA Manager). They asked all kind of questions, from very technical questions to how to deal with specific problems or how to solve or test a specific type of system. Once you pass that interview, they call you back for another interview with more technical people.
They claim they hire only the smartest people, but after talking with several individuals, I don't see how they can make that claim. Out of the eight people I talked with, only two of them impressed me. The rest did not show any signs of being any smarter than the average engineer.
Interview Question – Describe how you would test a system with thousands of test cases, given that you don't have enough time to test them all? Answer Question

Declined Offer – Reviewed Oct 24, 2012
Interview Details – Be careful not to fall into a trap in which you got a lot of promises. The interviewer may not ask you many technical questions as you may not be needed once some work in their mind gets done. Be sure to find out the history of the job you are interviewing for and ask others about that. If you are interviewed by a group and no further interview from upper management as a final round interview, then you must be careful.

Sales Engineer at MarkLogic
No Offer – Interviewed in Jun 2010 – Reviewed May 22, 2011
Interview Details –
I was contacted by a recruiter for the company who set up the phone interview with the hiring manager. The phone interview went well until the hiring manager gave the following statement: "most people with your experience have moved on to other things." I asked what the statement meant. I was told that the company was a "young" company. I replied that I knew it was a young company but, obviously, the age of the company wasn't what he was referring to. Other statements were then made by the hiring manager and I stopped the interview process.
The recruiter apologized profusely when I gave this information to her.
