I applied through an employee referral. The process took 1+ week. I interviewed at Netflix
Interview
Their interview process is very unorganized. The coordinator was so slow in responding to emails. It took them 2 days to reply back to my email to schedule a call. Finally, when we did schedule a call, the interviewer was all over the place with no clear organized flow of questions. After the interview, they went quiet again for about a week. Finally, I reached out and got the "thanks, but no thanks" email back. The reason was that I wasn't experienced enough. However, I have been doing recruiting way longer than my interviewer herself!
I agree with one of the other reviews here that don't expect to land a role here unless you are one of the friends of the current HR team at Netflix or you have got that white look. It's a pure shame that a company with a great product has a culture such as this.

I applied online. The process took 5 days. I interviewed at Netflix (Los Gatos, CA)
Interview
Seamless, great conversations and very relevant to the role and scope. No brainteasers like you would expect from other companies. Come prepared with questions and make sure to read the culture memo prior to any conversations you have with the Talent team

Question 1
How have you managed competing hiring priorities with hiring managers?
I applied online. I interviewed at Netflix in Apr 2021
Interview
I only had 2 calls in total:
-Recruiter's call with a recruiting researcher to explore my fit within the organization
-Hiring manager's call with a Recruiting Manager
It's a super friendly and positive experience for me. I didn't end up with an offer, but I learned a lot from the conversation with the hiring manager. My recruiter was also supportive and helpful in the process.
The HM told me that she enjoyed the conversation and would recommend me for the next step to meet the rest of the team. However, my recruiter asked me to connect with their talent mobility team first before moving to the next step as I'm on H1B. This process took me 3 weeks, and I ended up being told that the position had been closed. It's a bit disappointing to me, but there's nothing else I could do better. Really hope that visa transfer won't be too much of a pain in the future.
It sounded like the rest of the process included a sourcing exercise and general behavioral interviews with other team members.

I applied online. The process took 3 weeks. I interviewed at Netflix (Los Gatos, CA) in Oct 2017
Interview
I was scheduled to interview with Netflix and awaited my interview time. 10 minutes following what was set to be the start of my phone interview, I received an email requesting to reschedule. I promptly responded, sharing that the proposed time would work well. Ultimately I did not hear back following this email, but assumed the interview was set because it was the proposed time that the interviewer had requested.
On the reschedule date, I awaited a call that never came. I received an email the next day asking to reschedule again.
On the date of the second reschedule, I did receive a phone call from a different interviewer. The interview itself was rather loose- I was not asked any questions pertaining to my background, nor did I feel that the interviewer had any interest whatsoever in learning about my qualifications. The interviewer was unsure of what positions were even open within the Recruiting realm and promised to get back to me once she confirmed.
Within 1 week of the interview I received a disposition notice stating that I was no longer being considered for the open role (not sure which one as the Recruiter was unsure as to what was open).
Would not interview with Netflix again in the future based on lack of clear/defined process, lack of engagement in general and lack of consideration for my time as a potential candidate.
