I applied online. The process took 3 weeks. I interviewed at DreamWorks Animation (Glendale, CA) in Dec 2009
Interview
The interview went well. The thing that was really unique about the process was having a Video interview instead of being flown out to the company. The whole process was smooth, the people I interviewed with were nice. I interviewed with both the Glendale and Redwood City offices. The questions they asked were good. I didn't get grilled as much as I thought I would on specific coding questions, but they had some good logic questions.
