I applied through a recruiter. The process took 4 weeks. I interviewed at F5 (Hyderābād) in Apr 2022
Interview
They do not have a proper interview procedure.
They will conduct as many rounds as per their wish and ask you to attended.
And moreover they do not know this position is really required or not until last minute.
After clearing all the interviews, they will ask to share the required documents.
Finally you will receive a call from HR saying that the current position is on hold by the hiring manager.
This is the experience I faced recently.
