I applied in-person. The process took 2 weeks. I interviewed at NetApp (Research Triangle Park, NC) in Jan 2013
Interview
Process was very smooth, HR was very responsive to all my questions.
Went through one phone screen in Dec 2012 - for half an hour. mostly about my academics, projects.
Gave interesting networking problems and asked how would you go about troubleshooting them.
Jan 2013 - three onsite interviews - 2 technical, 1 manager
Interview questions [1]
Question 1
Interviewed in Jan 2013 for the networking team.
- Networking basics: ping, treacrt, IP fragmentation, vlan, routing protocols.
- Coding round had basic linked list, stack, queue, string manipulations, bit manipulation questions
- manager round was puzzles and basic "tell me about yourself" type questions and then follow up on those.
kind and plain. usual regular expected questions , nothing out of ordinary for a behavioral. went a little overtime. was a little more self guided than i expected, waiting to hear back for a while.
I met with two data heads and they were kinda rude. They asked a couple of data questions but were pretty basic. If you did not answer how they wanted, they made you feel dumb.
The online test consisted of two parts and lasted for a total of 2 hours. The first part challenged your coding abilities with 3 coding questions. These questions likely tested your knowledge of programming languages like Java or Python.
The second part focused on assessing your broader technical understanding through 30 Multiple Choice Questions (MCQs). These questions covered a range of topics relevant to software development, including Java, Python, logical reasoning, JavaScript, and even concepts related to threading in computer science.
