      Difficult interview

      Application

      I applied through university. The process took 2 weeks. I interviewed at Workday (Pleasanton, CA) in Oct 2010

      Interview

      I spoke on my university campus with a recruiter from Workday for approximately 45 minutes. The following week, I had a phone interview with a manager of the Technology QA group for one hour. I was notified via email that I was accepted for final round interviews on-site in Pleasanton. I was interviewed by 6 people spanning 3 hours, and was asked about the skills listed on my résumé, as well as other concepts pertaining to the position I was applying for. Four days later, I was called and offered a position, which I accepted.

      Application

      I applied through an employee referral. The process took 1 week. I interviewed at Workday (Pleasanton, CA) in Feb 2016

      Interview

      Initial phone screening by hiring manager followed by 3 hours onsite. Everyone was very friendly. Recruiter told me after 4 days of onsite that everyone liked me very much and offered me the position. All good so far. The offer was average. I was trying to get little more than offered and recruiter emailed me later that my offer has been REVOKED. What a shock for me. One side, everyone liked me and other side they revoked offer for negotiation. Be extremely careful during negotiation.

      Interview questions [1]

      Question 1

      Nothing super technical. Main focus was on prior experience and challenges. Also, if you had this situation, how did you overcome the issues.
