I applied online. I interviewed at Viasat in Apr 2021
Interview
I was contacted by a recruiter and we had a simple phone screen with questions about my background. The recruiter told me later that she had forwarded my resume to the hiring manager and that I’d be contacted in the next week or so to set up an interview. I never got any such email, and I sent a follow up email to the recruiter, and she said she was working to get me an interview. I waited some more, and eventually the recruiter told me that my profile was mistakenly purged from their database and was trying to figure it out. She sent me another link to reapply and I did so. I didn’t hear anything else until I got a standard no reply email telling me the position had been filled. Overall a huge headache.
I applied through college or university. I interviewed at Viasat (Chennai) in Nov 2025
Interview
Practice DSA, be good in computer networks and operating systems. Getting good command with basics. There were 3 rounds. First two rounds were technical both for around 1 hour and 3rd round was managerial.
Good process, no coding interview, phone call then straight to actual in person interview. Nice office and nice interviewer. They took a long time to get back to me at the end tho and i had to message for them to let me know i got rejected.

I applied through college or university. The process took 2 days. I interviewed at Viasat (Chennai)
Interview
The process consisted of four rounds with multiple interviewers.
* Round 1: Focused on Python fundamentals, including data structures like linked lists, stacks, and queues.
* Round 2: Covered full-stack development concepts, with a strong emphasis on Angular.
* Round 3: Explored Machine Learning concepts and their potential applications.
The interview process was quite lengthy and challenging. One of my friends reported a coding task exceeding 600 lines of code, which suggests a high bar for entry. While demanding, this likely serves to identify top-tier talent with exceptional problem-solving and coding abilities
