Ho presentato la mia candidatura online. Ho sostenuto un colloquio presso Palo Alto Networks (Santa Clara, CA) nel mese di gen 2017
Colloquio
Started with a phone conversation with one of the leads which went pretty well. Next round was an onsite 2 hour technical test.
Extremely unprofessional company though. I followed up like a zillion times for feedback about the technical test. First couple times, recruiter said she had not received feedback from engineering team and will get back to me once it happens. But after waiting for 2 more weeks, tried reaching the recruiter again. Even recruiter was unreachable after that. Its been almost 4 weeks since the technical test but no feedback.
I would think a company this big would at least have the courtesy to provide a feedback even if it is negative to candidates. I would never ever apply to this company and never recommend anyone there either.

2nd round was with 2 engineers, this was a problem-solving round. Given a piece of code, how to improve it (multi-thread again). Only need to write sudo code.
3nd round was with 2 engineers again, a system design round. Not a typical system design problem, more like a real problem in the work.

Colloquio
There was a conversation with HR, and then I was scheduled for an interview with a team leader about my technology stack. According to the stack, he asked me deeper questions to check my understanding. The next interview consisted of a technical question, posed as a LeetCode problem, and a coding question.
