I thought the hiring process was quite haphazard. I first got scheduled for an interview with someone who cancelled with less than 8 hour notice. Then re-scheduled. In the meantime, another person interviewed me instead of the original guy. Utilmately ended up interviewing with 3 different people on the phone and doing a personal salesforce org building exercise. they ultimately put me on a flight to San Fran for a personal interview after atleast 3 weeks of interviews and exercises and exchanges. They originally tried to get me on a red-eye and I politely declined, since that would affect my current job. By this time, I was a little ticked off anyways. Anyways, they booked me on a better flight and off I went to SF. So I arrived a few minutes early to the "office"..which by the way was not a "big huge office" in anyway, as decribed by the recruiter. Its just a leased space with a half a floor belonging to Appirio. No receptionist or anyone for the first 15 minutes. Finally got someone to get me seated and checked in. What followed was F2F with 5 different people AND a SKYPE with a guy who was actually in SF (huh??) (talk about going to SF and doing a SKYPE with a local guy???). I thought I did great on all, except one where this gentleman tried to give me these analytical puzzles. Honestly, I have never been good at these, but at the same time, I do not think they necessarily indicate whether or not you can do a job properly. I am one of the best troubleshooters in my team, but I just don't do those puzzles well...partly because I don't dedicate time to those and don't think they are that important. Anyways..a week later, got a general e-mail saying they are done considering me and would not like to proceed further. I tried to get a more specific response from them on what went wrong...expecially after interviewing with 8 different people over a month and doing a practice exercises and all.. i thought i deserved a little more response. anyways...it's their prerogative and they should have it. End of day..my gut says they probably were not ready to even offer me what I made currently and hence did not go thru with the offer..but if that was indeed the case, they could have done themselves and me a favor and said that outright...saving everyones time, energy and money. Anyways..I got a much much better offer after these bozos..so i think whatever happens, happens for good.

The overall process was well organized and coordinated. Recruiters did excellent job. There were 7-8 interviewers covering various aspects of position from cultural fit to depth of technical knowledge and ability to answer behavior questions. Cons: what was puzzling to find out that multiple interviewers were at same time applying and interviewing ... That could be related to acquisition but prudent to keep in mind and potentially question hiring decision making .
