      Anonymous Interview Candidate
      San Francisco, CA
      Declined offer
      Neutral experience
      Easy interview

      Application

      I applied in-person. The process took 4 days. I interviewed at Skype (San Francisco, CA) in Jun 2012

      Interview

      Very chill, good contact, the interview was not particularly difficult. It was pretty technical in nature however there were behavioral aspects to it as well..I told them my primary coding language was python so they asked me questions in python and not any other language.

      Anonymous Interview Candidate
      Tallinn
      Declined offer
      Positive experience
      Average interview

      Application

      I applied through a recruiter. The process took 2 months. I interviewed at Skype (Tallinn) in Dec 2014

      Interview

      Great time with the process, I was contacted by a recruiter via LinkedIn. I had a Skype call with the recruiter that made a background check. After that she connected me with a team manager that explained me the job position and what I would do there, also he asked about my interests. Next step was to complete an assignment that they sent to me through email. I had one week to complete it. Then I had a F2F interview in the Skype HQ.

      Interview

      One afternoon of interviews which turned out to be plentiful. Divided up into several passes, about 5, each with a different person holding the interview. In the end it wasn't that much effort required to complete it.
