I applied online. I interviewed at VMware in Dec 2020
Interview
The process was fairly standard and took place over about 3 weeks. Everything took place online (e.g. email, Zoom, etc.) because of the pandemic. My first interview was a screening with an HR representative. Once I passed my screening, I had an interview with the hiring manager, which went well and led to further interviews with a designer on the team, a product owner, and a product manager. Every person I talked to in the process was very knowledgeable and friendly. Ultimately, they went with another candidate but the process was enjoyable and I'd definitely consider taking a position there in the future if I received an offer.

The interview process was very long. After two rounds of behavioral/resume interviews, I was asked to meet with someone for a portfolio interview. A recruiter sent me lots of materials to prepare for the interview, but the interviewer was not enthusiastic or a good listener
