I applied online. I interviewed at Dolby (Sunnyvale, CA) in Mar 2012
Interview
Got a call from HR for a screen interview then a site interview with cross functional team members.

I applied through other source. I interviewed at Dolby
Interview
The interview process consisted of several stages: HR interview → technical interview with the manager → technical assignment → two additional interviews with technical teams.
The overall process was quite long, with gaps of several weeks between some stages. However, the recruiters informed me about this in advance, explaining that they receive and process a large number of applications while trying to find the best candidate.
I would also like to highlight the professionalism of the interviewers and the very positive impression I had of the team atmosphere throughout the process.

Question 1
They asked about the architectural differences and specific features of different platforms.
Needs 3 rounds of interview, requires code testing at the second stage. The final interview is tough but the panels are helpful- ready to provide support and it makes the candidate feels that he/she is working toward solution in a team.
