I applied online. The process took 3 weeks. I interviewed at VMware (Denver, CO) in Mar 2012
Interview
One phone interview by recruiter, then two different people (networking specialist and a storage specialist) that conducted phone interviews with technical questions (mostly non-VMWare related). Finally I had one in-person interview where I met with my future manager and some technical lead engineers which all asked questions regarding customer interactions, difficult technical situations and time management.

I applied online. The process took 3 months. I interviewed at VMware (Singapore) in Jun 2021
Interview
First interview in early June. Proceed to have 4 other interviews with other heads, architects and directors over the month. HR will string you along and ghost for more than 2 months and not provide any updates other than delaying and giving hope. Don't waste your time.

Application
I applied through a recruiter. I interviewed at VMware (Cork) in Apr 2017
Interview
The interview process consisted of three phases. First one: Telephone interview. Sedond stage: Online assessment (personality test and skills). Third one: Assessment day in their Cork Facilities ( group activies and one to one interview).
Interview questions [3]
Question 1
Telephone questions where about qualifications and skills (like languages spoken). Then knowledge of the company and their products.
One on one interview:
- Work experience
- Tell me about a time you had a problem during a project and how you resolved it
- What would have happened if you didn't solve this problem
- Tell me about a time you had to work with someone you didn't like. And how did it go?
- Tell me about a time you where in disadvantage respect your pair and what did you to overcome the situation.
- What are your weaknesses. What are you doing to improve?
I applied through an employee referral. The process took 3 months. I interviewed at VMware (Chicago, IL)
Interview
HR Screen, multiple interviews with team, presentation, addition interviews, being ignored, no feedback on next steps or of no longer in consideration, calls out of blue for more, more being provided no response, over and over, finally lost all interest as not the type of company where I would want to work.

Question 1
Using this to warn anyone considering VMWare to stay far away.
Horrible treatment of those going through process. I had multiple interviews yet zero information from HR or Hiring Manager. Constantly went dark only to reach back out and ask for more time. HR wouldn't respond to status and never did. If you value yourself don't apply here, they have zero respect for you or your time. Choosing to not hire someone is absolutely ok, not letting them
know after two plus months of interviews is very unprofessional.
