I applied through a recruiter. The process took 2 weeks. I interviewed at PlayStation (Foster City, CA) in Mar 2009
Interview
Applying online was not very productive. I found the name of a recruiter and e-mailed her directly, which prompted a response. From first communication to final interview, it took about 2 months, so the process is very lengthy. It was difficult to get everyone the wanted me to see all on the same day, so I had to go back multiple times for a single "round" of interviews.
Questions were very straightforward and people were very nice, but the logistics were difficult. It seems the hiring manager had a hard time choosing and follow-up information was not always easy to get.
I applied online. I interviewed at PlayStation (London, England) in Nov 2025
Interview
Was a good process overall, they were timely with responses and friendly. An initial HR screen followed by 3 rounds total, I think there was a fourth after If I reached that stage. All were panel interviews with various members across the business.

Good interview with nice people in a relaxed environment. Although i was shortlisted, I did not tick all boxes and at the end was not offered post. My knowledge of Spanish was too basic and they were looking for a billingual English Spanish speaker.
