      Got the interview on campus. Although I applied for software position, they asked me all hardware questions. Asked me about basic concepts of circuit components. Soon called me again for a second round interview.

      Hardware Engineer Interview

      Anonymous interview candidate
      Declined offer
      Negative experience
      Easy interview

      Application

      I applied through university. The process took 4 weeks. I interviewed at Viasat

      Interview

      Met at career fair booth. Scheduled the next day an interview. Really easy. Didn't hear back for a month. Recruiter didn't understand what I was interested and almost set up a call with a manager in a role I showed no interest in. Somehow a different manager called me. Short call, got the offer in writing 3 weeks later. Very slow process, didn't have faith in engineers after the questions they asked.

      Hardware Engineer Interview

      12 Mar 2016
      Anonymous interview candidate
      No offer
      Negative experience
      Easy interview

      Application

      I applied through a recruiter. I interviewed at Viasat

      Interview

      I was contacted by an internal recruiter and had a phone interview with them. I was asked what my current salary was at my current job. I told them that was private information and then told them my target salary. The recruiter said that was ok, but I would have to reveal my salary eventually if I wanted to be considered. I have been told by other that they require W2s or pay stubs to prove what you make. This is just a way to lowball the candidate. After the initial phone interview they told me I was to move to the next stage by interviewing with the Hiring Manager. After a month or so of no communication, they called me and said they filled the position already. My advice is to avoid ViaSat until they start treating candidates like human beings.
