Interviewed May 2011 in San Jose, CA (took 5 days)
I was originally contacted by the Intern Coordinator and then connected with my Hiring Manager, who eventually was my manager, and the two writers on staff. The questions mainly concerned my impending degree, my plans for after the summer (grad school) and my experience at former internships. We also discussed the period in which I was available to work and the benefits offered to interns (relocation package and housing stipend).

Interviewed and No Offer

Interviewed Aug 2010 in San Jose, CA (took 8 months)
each interview experience was neutral to positive, however the number of starts and stops and the length of time it took the company to make a final decision was not at all positive - 8 months is extraordinary.

Very Easy Interview

Overall Negative Experience

Received and Declined Offer
|
Interviewed Jun 2010 (took a day)
stupid questions:
why a C structure is smaller than a Type?
what is the size of a structure? (in general? - stupid question)
why you think you are a senior programmer?
then some more rude questions that made me finish discussion early
the general feeling was that the hiring manager did the best he could to keep candidates away from his chair
how come people like these ever become hiring managers?
Interview Questions
Reason for Declining
all my answers were interrupted, talked over me, never listened my whole answer.
at some point the hiring manager started yelling
rude people, bad environment, bad place to work
guys, there are better places out there
