I applied through a recruiter. The process took 2+ months. I interviewed at Cloudera (Budapest) in Mar 2018
Interview
- Casual process, very informal, but really selective. They do not want to make a bad choice for the position.
- Friendly people from HR to the manager or the future colleague, all seem to be wonderful people.
- 3 interviews over the phone or video and then a face to face interview in Budapest (4 hours interview with different people).
The company seems to be amazing but I had to stop the process before the onsite interview in Budapest for private reasons unfortunately.
I applied online. The process took 1 week. I interviewed at Cloudera (Austin, TX) in Apr 2017
Interview
2-3 Phone calls with recruiters, about 30mins to an hour each then an onsite 3 1/2hour interview. With team leads and a "tech guy" who had absolutely no interest in speaking to me, pretty much knew it was over then. All the other people I met with in management/team members were awesome, and the recruiters were top notch.

I applied online. The process took 5 weeks. I interviewed at Cloudera (Palo Alto, CA) in Nov 2015
Interview
Process was slow, but, went without a hitch. Interviews were pleasant. I was also flown out to the main office for an all-day interview with a panel of employees. I waited over a week and half for the results but was suddenly told over a brief email from the Technical Sourcer that the company decided to move the headcount to another department without them knowing. I was pretty stunned to say the least, especially that deep in the process...
