I applied online. The process took 4 weeks. I interviewed at Scribd Inc.
Interview
Very well response from the company. Only complaint is the developer who took my interview was himself confused about the question he asked me and was completely wrong and he knew that. But in my review he just picked silly points not to choose me.

Question 1
Make a simple app with a single view. This view will contain a text field that accepts numerical
input. There should be a submit button which when pressed, will validate the user input and
check if it is a valid credit card number by means of the Luhn algorithm. The UI will indicate
somehow if the entered text is valid or not by a means of your choice. The UI should also
handle rotation smoothly for both android phone and tablet.

Interview questions [1]
Question 1
what are the projects you have worked on previously?
The interview went okay. Mostly behavioural questions were asked in first interview. I could gauge that internal team structure was missing and probably the interview was a front to hire someone internal. Received an email 15 minutes after the first interview that they have hired someone else.
The interview formats were typical, though most rounds felt very disorganized and unprepared. I was made to feel very confident that I was going to receive an offer after the final rounds, and then fence posts kept moving until I was told otherwise. I left feeling that my time was wasted by the recruiter, and that the company's standards for professionalism were quite low.
