If you ask for a update after the interview like after 2 days via mail hr will respond immediate. Good work by hr Overall good.........

This is the best and toughest interview i ever attended. I had around 4 rounds- 3 pure technical(unix+hadoop), last round- hadoop+HR. Process took around 2 weeks and it started with a HR mail with few questions on our experience, role and why hortonworks. They were in search of a unix admin who are willing to learn hadoop. So they were firing questions on issues and debugging in unix. I would say this is tuff. Coming to hadoop, believe me they are experts. They asked everything in detailed and very patient enough to let me explain everything i knew. And if my answers were wrong they explained me what is correct. Pretty good right.
