I applied online. I interviewed at Hulu in Mar 2013
Interview
A few weeks after I applied on Hulu's job website, I got an email says they want to interview me. First, they let me did a 8-hour programming exercise. That wasn't too difficult, but makes me exhausted since I spent the whole 8 hours solving the problem. Then after a few days, I got an email says I will have a second round of interview. During the interview, the interviewer just simply introduced himself (without asking me any questions), then went straight to the question I am going to solve. I believe the question is some kind of "classic" algorithm problem. I did solve that using brute force method but failed to provide a more efficient solution after several hints from the interviewers. So the next day, I got an reject letter.
I applied through college or university. The process took 3 weeks. I interviewed at Hulu (Santa Monica, CA) in Nov 2013
Interview
Got the 8 hour programming challenge, completed it (they say in their email that they're looking for quality code more than actual correctness), and landed an interview the following week. Interviewer was very friendly and we hit it off pretty well. The day after the interview, my recruiter contacted me and told me I had an offer.
