Interview
Interviewer was rude. No 2 way communication or discussion regarding the question he asked or solution I provided.
Asked me 2 programming questions, went silent, putting me on hold. Cut the interview short, without providing any clues, after I was struggling at one point.
Glad I did not get any further in the process as I would not have liked working with such colleagues!
I applied online. The process took 1 week. I interviewed at 8x8 (San Jose, CA) in Nov 2015
Interview
Applied thru linkedin. Got an email from recruiter. Set up a time to call and discussed about the position and my experience. Sent an online coding task. Up on completion set up a phone call with tech lead. Phone conversation was about my current role and experience and asked few data structure/algorithm questions. I felt the interview went well, the person was very jovial and discussed other things beside the job details. Promised to let me know the next steps. Never heard back since.
