I traveled 50 Km to appear for the interview. I cleared the F2F interview. Last round with the Sr manager also done. Later next day in email, HR asked for all the required documents including the sal slips, RSU etc. I provided it. HR gave me the offer numbers over the phone. We negotiated the offer on the phone. He came back and gave me the final numbers and I agreed. But HR did not send any thing in written in spite of asking many times to send a tentative offer same as what we agreed through email. He did not send anything. He said he may get in to trouble if he send through email. Few days later he insisted to inform the current organization manager. I refused to do so as i did not had any thing in writing. But he insisted that he cant proceed unless i inform the manager. So reluctantly inform the manager. After that he assured me that i will get the offer letter within 3-4 day. But I did not receive anything even after 1 month passed. Recently last week ago different HR person called me to tell that there is one more telephonic round of interview left with senior director. I agreed though it was total absurd as they had already given the offer and also had forced me to inform my manager and assured me that they are sending th offer letter. Anyways, the interview with sr Director also went well (as per my understanding) and she said that i will hear from HR in two days. Its four days passed, i have not heard anything from HR. Tried to reach them but no one takes the call or respond the email. Now its more than 50 days i appeared for the interview , I have not received the offer letter. He is not responding calls and emails. I will not recommend any one even to appear for interview and waste the time and energy.
I applied through a recruiter. I interviewed at VMware (Bengaluru)
Interview
The one of the interviewers was not sympathetic & wanted to just show that she knows better.
The interview was majorly to show how much they know rather than what a candidate can bring to the team .
The questions were intentionally made harder & harder , The answers were interrupted without listening to the full approach.

I applied through a recruiter. I interviewed at VMware (Bengaluru) in July 2016
Interview
Telephonic was setup. The call never came in. It got rescheduled couple of days later. Again the call didn't come at scheduled time. After I follow up I get a call. Call went on for 45 minutes. Discussed a coding problem and was asked to code it on collabedit.
After the interview no one bothered to write even an email. I followed up after a week. As usual no reply. Overall extremely unprofessional.

Question 1

I applied through a recruiter. The process took 2 weeks. I interviewed at VMware (Bengaluru) in June 2016
Interview
The interview consisted of one telephonic round, and 3 technical face 2 face rounds. First of all they called me for a team. The interview process was okay. Questions were ranging from algorithm-datastructure and Core Java advanced concepts like memory management, multithreading etc. After 3 rounds of f2f, they decided to let me go for the day. The HR did not have courtesy to talk to me after the interviews. I was told to leave for the day. No calls for another one week.
After one week, I was contacted by another HR with similar requirements but another team. I was told I would have to re-appear for all rounds when I told him that I had been in touch with another HR for similar requirement. He told me it was for a different team and we agreed. Another round of stupidity began. With similar questions asked on telephonic.
The day of F2F was set and I again reached the same office, different HR and similar set of questions. One of the interviewers in fact sat with a laptop, dictating the algorithm question to me (literally). I was asked to note the question down on a paper from careercup.com. I said that its fine I got the question. And was able to solve it. Well, she didnt like it because the 1st approach in careercup was not recursive. Spent 4 hours and then was the managerial round. Where I was told, they are looking for senior folks. I mean you took 1 telephonic and 3 technical round to deduce that I did not have enough experience? Again, no response from the HR, infact he was clueless to even where the interview was to happen, this building or that. Funny but true!
