I applied online. The process took 2 weeks. I interviewed at F5 (Hyderābād)
Interview
The Interview Process is flawed at F5.
I never got to know how many rounds will be there. Initially I was told that there'll be total 3 rounds: 1 technical, 1 Managerial and 1 HR.
This increased to 5 rounds finally.(2 Technical, 1 Managerial, 1 Cultural Fit, 1 HR)
They kept on postponing my cultural Fit round and finally cancelled it and asked me to wait for 2 days. After that the recruiter said that there's no response from the hiring manager and that she'll call back when there is any response.
It's been a week and there's no reply to any of my emails and my calls.
The interviewers were really nice and experienced. It's the recruiting process that is really exhausting.

I applied through college or university. I interviewed at F5 (Chennai)
Interview
Totally there were 5 rounds.
They started with online test covering MCQ and 2 coding questions and then GD happened with a team, Coding round and then technical round happened and then finally HR round happened.
Applied and received an email a few days later to complete an online assessment on HackerRank within a week. There were a few questions, some multiple choice, and I believe two coding questions. Received a rejection email about 1-2 weeks later.
