I applied online. The process took 1 week. I interviewed at InMobi (San Francisco, CA) in Sep 2016
Interview
I had an initial phone screen with a recruiter and then an in-person interview in their San Francisco office.
It was the worst interview I have ever had!!!
The interviewer asked me some basic questions regarding my background and then proceeded to ask me three mathematical/logical questions. I was in shock that he gave me thirty seconds to answer the three questions he asked me. I essentially knew the interview was over at that point. He told me they were looking for someone extremely analytical and logical for the position. He had recently moved from India to run the team here, it was pretty clear he was looking for someone else from India to join his team. After the interview was over I was told the recruiter would follow up with me, not a word from them since. Very poor interviewing and follow up! I would not recommend!
Interview questions [1]
Question 1
If you had to walk from your house to the office, how many steps would it take? He said to do the math in cm and km and give him an exact number.
If I give you 4 tablets which contain 2 tablets for fever and 2 tablets for cold. All 4 are the same size, shape, and color. You have to take 1 cold and 1 fever tablet. How will you choose correctly?
You are trying to cook an egg for exactly fifteen minutes, but instead of a timer, you are given two ropes which burn for exactly 1 hour each. The ropes, however, are of uneven densities – i e , half the rope length-wise might take only two minutes to burn. How can you cook the egg for exactly fifteen minutes?

I applied online. The process took 1 week. I interviewed at InMobi (Bengaluru) in Apr 2016
Interview
Telephonic interview and then personal discussion. The interview is more of getting to know how good you are at problem solving, creative thinking etc..The overall process was good and people there are very friendly and they make you comfortable. It will not be like a typical interview where they will start asking the same question tell me about yourself.
