applied online. got contacted by recruiter. followed by phone interview - got rejected here. The recruiter was very nice and responsive. But I was not happy with the interviewer - felt like it he was trying to pick on me for me reason. It was a shock that I got rejected because apparently coding was not up to par (all other big companies seem to be happy with me coding tough!)
I think they need better interviewers than just asking any random junior guy to interview
