Very Easy Interview

Overall Positive Experience

Interviewed and No Offer

Interviewed Jul 2011 in Beverly Hills, CA (took a day)

The interview process was very smooth. I had a phone interview with the HR recruiter that lasted 30 minutes. She followed up with the in-person interview information. I met with 3 people at Netflix. Everyone was very nice and professional.

My advice would be to focus on how your skills are going to meet the job requirements. Read the corporate culture deck online and make sure everything you discuss is in line with what they have online. Their corporate culture is a very important to them and it will really come down to who is going to fit in the best at the company and in their group.

Difficult Interview

Overall Positive Experience

Interviewed and No Offer

Interviewed May 2011 in Beverly Hills, CA (took 3 days)

Phone interview was standard. When I was brought in for a face-to-face interview, I was sent a schedule ahead of time of the 5 separate (separate) interview appointments I would have with every member of the team. It was extremely thorough, although overwhelming at times, and they freely admitted that they often fired employees who weren't constantly putting in extra effort. Definitely worth it to ask them the breakdown of the team in detail - job titles mean very little at Netflix, as your job responsibilities are constantly shifting, and they rarely do title promotions.

Reason for Declining

They actually said that I wasn't a good fit. After reading all the lousy remarks and comments about the company, I'm thankful they didn't offer me the job. Yes, the pay would have been awesome, but the culture is BS.

I was contacted through linked in twice for the same job - most recently a month ago. Their HR rep seemed to be on top of things, and I enjoyed our communication and the video interview I had. My next meeting (right after) was with a local HR rep, who was seemed very concerned with exactly how I would go through the process of getting a particular job done (ie art approvals) and not about my experience. Finally, I was to meet with the hiring manager. She was about 45 minutes late, and rushed through our interview, asking very little about me and basically telling me what the job was before rushing me out 15 minutes later. My opinion was that she was sloppy and unprofessional, and if I were to be offered the job, i would decline it based on my experience with her. Needless to say, I didn't want to pursue the opportunity and was never called. It was a disappointing waste of time after what started out as a positive experience.
