I applied through university. The process took 2 months. I interviewed at Esri (Redlands, CA) in Feb 2019
Interview
The interview process is very long. Several phone interviews, followed by a day long interview where you are interviewed by up to 10 people. Come prepared and be ready to answer similar questions multiple times with multiple people. Everyone that interviews you gets to vote on whether or not you are hired, even the person that takes you to the cafeteria for lunch.

Fairly straightforward process.
Started with a recruiter who reviewed a variety of open Product Engineering positions and paired me with a domain that fit my experience. Met with Product Manager and Product Lead over separate Zoom interviews. Scheduled an all-day, on-site interview but had to withdraw due to the location - I moved to a different city due to other commitments and could not move to the office.

Interview
The HR team is quite slow in their responses. The interview process can be lengthy, often spanning 2-3 months, and requires continuous follow-up for updates. It’s clear that the HR department could benefit from some improvements
