I applied through a recruiter. I interviewed at Trulia
Interview
Recruiter contacted me through LinkedIn and had an initial chat. Then a tech telephonic interview was scheduled. It had a mix of Java coding, SQL, mapreduce, questions on collections and concurrency. It went fine. I was invited for an in-person interview. There were 5 rounds of interview, including high level design and architecture, questions on Cassandra, HBase, then followed by low level concurrency questions, was asked to code a map reduce program and then finally a simple programming puzzle. Though I thought I did fine, I had couple of issues. I was told I was not fluent in whiteboard coding ( I know it was that puzzle) and as well did not show lot of enthusiasm. The best part of the interview process is the team was very friendly. Though I did not get the offer, I was never made to feel bad. The team was very respectful and encouraged me throughout the process.
After I submitted a resume online on February , a recruiter contacted me. Then he disappears for a month without follow-up. The interview was finally taken place at April. It went very well. I was told the feedback is positive and they are still interviewing other candidates. Two months go by! On June, another recruiter emailed me that she is taking over on the position and promised me to tell me the result. Guess what, nothing ever happens.
