applied through a referral and didn't hear back for at least a week. once communication channels started, process seemed to moved fairly quick. had phone screen and immediately moved to next stage - zoom call with two of their program managers. Zoom interview wasn't anything different from pre-COVID: 1. previous experience - how is it same or different 2. expectations - benchmarking, deadlines, current challenges 3. time to ask questions to sniff out fit

First you have a call with a recruiter where you generally talk about yourself and why you are interested in the company and position. Prepare for multiple questions about VMware. Then I had a call with two directors where they asked me multiple situational questions and at the end I had a call with the VP of the department and I had to do a presentation on something that I'm passionate about.

Initial interview with TA then hiring manager. The two future colleagues All zoom meeting coordinated by TA with one week availability request All were 30 minutes Solid experiences, plenty of time for candidate to ask questions
