      Application

      I applied online. The process took 2 weeks. I interviewed at SunPower (Austin, TX) in Jul 2015

      Interview

      Initially telephonic interview with hiring manager for 30 minutes, then a personal interview with 5 persons working there. Each one came in the conference room one by one at the interval on 30 minutes and asked questions ranging from requirement analysis, programming, latest technologies, database, etc.

      Answer question

      Question 2

      At the end, there was an interview with the Director. He asked me, "did the hiring manager or anyone asked me to write any code?". He said that you might have to come back again for coding test, but there have been no contact from anyone. I e-mailed the company recruitment department as well as the hiring manager, but no response.
