I applied online. I interviewed at Indeed (Dublino, Dublino) in Aug 2015
Interview
Interview process started with a phone call from the recruitment department within a few days of sending CV. Here we had an open conversation about my experience to date and why I wanted to be further considered by Indeed.
Once I got through this I was interviewed face to face by a sales director and Team lead.
Here we again discussed my background, career goals and future.
After this we did a sales simulation which was given to me before the interview.
I applied through college or university. I interviewed at Indeed (Austin, TX) in Oct 2016
Interview
Interview consisted of a phone screening and an onsite interview. Phone screening was with an engineer solving basic algorithm problems. On site was drastically harder, it consisted of 3 hour-long whiteboarding questions with 3 different sets of engineers, a lunch, and an 1.5 hour long coding challenge. What struck me the most was just how high a standard they had for their interns. When I arrived and I talked to the other recruits, I was the only person there interviewing for an internship. Not only that, many of the candidates there were completing their masters. Needless to say, being a college underclassmen, I found that being held to the same standards as a masters student for a position that would require way less knowledge and is typically designed to be a learning environment is a little unwarranted. Questions were difficult, I hacked together 2 of the whiteboarding problems and took the entire hour for all three. Coding challenge was more reasonable, you were left in a large conference room with your batch of candidates and were given the problem on Hackerrank. After that, we were given a bag of Indeed trinkets and dismissed. Approximately 1-2 weeks afterwards, they called with the result of the interview process.

I applied through an employee referral. I interviewed at Indeed (Stamford, CT)
Interview
The very first phone call was somewhat unpleasant, just not well performed, questions weren't asked well and it seemed like the interviewer was not prepared for the call. This made the entire conversation just go poorly.
