I applied online. The process took 1 week. I interviewed at Opendoor in Feb 2016
Interview
I had a phone interview with recruiter. Worst interview ever. She was very late from interview schedule, and she did not pay attention to what I spoke. She did not understand technical aspect at all. I hear that engineering teams are really nice, and I wish I had a chance to talk with them...
Failed at HR call. Profile might not be that much match, they are looking for backend leaning role but I did more front end works instead. HR might not look up my resume carefully.
I applied through university. I interviewed at Opendoor
Interview
There was a phone screen which was followed by an onsite interview with 4-5 interviews, some technical, others behavioral. It was interesting that they included some ML-based questions in the SWE interview. Afterward, I heard back pretty quickly.
