I applied through an employee referral. I interviewed at Thomson Reuters (Ann Arbor, MI) in Jan 2017
Interview
It started with having a recruiter from the company reach out to you. From there, you will be told to come back for another interview and speak with the Hiring Manager. The interview process was ok until the very end where we had to meet with two different engineers and the HR. First they told me I would be there all day. I showed up and they told me bluntly the interview would be for the other team.
If I had to step back in time, I would not apply to this position. They have wasted time and did not get anything out of it. I feel incredibly let down. As well, the attitudes of the developers was incredibly rude the entire time. They had nothing positive or good to say about their jobs

Other Senior Software Developer Interview Reviews for Thomson Reuters
The process is very smooth, and HR are cooperative until you are being considered; after that, they won't reply to you Email.
HackerRank - MCQ + Some output/debugging
Recruiter Phone Screen - Exp + job fit
Manager Review-
Hiring Manager Interview-About your experience and resume-based questions
Technical Interview (Live Coding and/or System Design and/or Technical Presentation) - 2 rounds simultaneously on the same day.
Coding - it was a medium question - I prepared a LeetCode-style question, but they asked a competitive type of question (I was able to figure out the logic but not the code)
System Design round is based on the project that you have done, and then they expand it by adding more functionality. RAG Questions about Chunking, etc., overall workflow of the cloud.
Job Fit Interview - Didn't pass the last round, so not sure.
I asked for feedback multiple times, but HR didn't respond. I was sick for one of the interviews, and they were very helpful with rescheduling.

The worst experience I have ever had with any company. I applied for a role in August, I initially started the process with a recruiter and when through the initial call. Got a rejection said the role was filled. A week later the role was reposted. I got in touch again and we restarted the process.
We did another HR/Recruiter screening, and then entered a loop where their Polish based (outsourced?) Talent Partner don't even have Calendly links to share. After 3-4 weeks trying to schedule a call with the hiring manager, we finally found a slot.
On the day of the interview, no one joined.
Absolutely outrageous and unprofessional. Suffice to say, you must be desperate for a job to be willing to get through their interview process.
