I received a phone call from Talent Acquisition, confirmed a day and time for a phone interview with one of recruiter. The call was supposed be at 5:00PM, I waited exactly at 5:00 but she didn't call or email me. So I emailed the Talent Acquisition, no reply, then I made a phone call to Talent Acquisition said the recruiter was on conference and changed the date. The recruiter should of done this process herself instead of me waiting till 6:00PM. She called me the next days with bad attitude. Ask some questions, and simply said I will inform the director and reply you through email. 2 weeks later, a rejection email followed. Worst interview experience on phone

I applied through an employee referral. The process took 4 months. I interviewed at Indeed (New York, NY) in Apr 2015
Interview
Three step interview process. First step is a phone interview, make sure you know they are a search engine. Second step is meeting with the managers and the last step is a presentation. Overall it was not hard. I was not offered the job because I did not have enough experience. They say they want college kids, however they do not want to train.

Question 1
You need to solve well at least 2 out of 4 tasks. I chose to use Java as long as C#, my first programming language option was not available.
The time available is 2 hours.
The questions require good basic knowledge of graphs theory (and implementation), algorithms and data structures.
For the graph theory based tasks, choosing the right implementation of the graph is the key to solve the task in the given time.
