Average Interview
Application
InterviewI applied through a recruiter. The process took 3 weeks. I interviewed at Illumio (Bergen op Zoom)
Interviewed with 6 people. Did the initial phone screening then moved onto the hiring manager. Then meet with the 4 team members including the VP. Then the hiring manager again. Was verbally offered the job then they went silent for 2 weeks. Then I got a call from the recruiter that with some weak excuse about needing a strong demeanor to handle the campaign team and changing priorities. The interviews were done back to back over 1 day. It was a huge time commitment while working. And a waste of time. I don't think they knew what they were looking for.

InterviewI applied online. The process took 2 weeks. I interviewed at Illumio (San Francisco, CA) in Mar 2022
The interview process consisted of 4 rounds a) HR b) Speaking with the Hiring Manager c) Coding Round with Software Engineer d) Coding Round with QA Engineer I overall experience was neutral and round a, b, c and d were good. The interviewers were nice and jolly. I did sent them a thank you note and they sent me a rejection :) . The HR totally ignored my feedback email and let it go to void.

I was almost selected but they had obligations about hiring remaining interns from the United states they wanted some from Canada. This was really a bummer for me as I was quite excited to join the team and had invested a lot of time in the whole process.

InterviewI applied online. The process took 4 weeks. I interviewed at Illumio (Sunnyvale, CA) in Mar 2022
There were a total of 6 steps in the process. HR & management was transparent and really asked the questions that they had and needed to know to prove whether I would be a good fit. It was unlike all the interviews you may encounter where the interviewer is trying to stonewall you in regards to their feedback or how you answered a question. They just dug deeper when they needed to and weren't afraid to tell you where you line up well and where you don't, giving you the ability to address your perceived weaknesses if possible. Very fair.
Interview Questions
- Tell me about one of your most successful moments in your career that you are proud of.

Pretty straight forward, focus on development skills rather than leetcode. Had one or two algorithm based interviews but very easy, mostly tested on knowing how to manipulate data, use SQL, and write software
