I applied online. I interviewed at Hurricane Electric (Fremont, CA) in Sept 2015
Interview
I sent my resume and a HR assistant emailed me and scheduled an appointment for a screening test in Fremont, CA. The screening test is a multiple choice test on a computer. Bunch of question about programming on C, and Perl, hexadecimal and binary translation, Linux, networking and some math.
Never heard from them again. Absolutely have no idea what they want from math web programmer. The advertisement appears pretty regularly on Craislist
I applied online. The process took 2 days. I interviewed at Hurricane Electric in Aug 2014
Interview
I applied online after seeing it on Craigslist. An administrative assistant called me and scheduled an on-site multiple choice timed test. The test was proctored by a lady named Annie Yau who gave me a on-site HR screening after I finished the test with 85%+ on each portion. She took me to a room on the side to ask me about my experience, told more about the company and if I will be chosen I will be noticed by mail.

Interview
Onsite interview... hmm, started with
The multiple-choice test focuses on basic programming, C++, Perl, SQL, basic networking, and some basic Algebra. They claimed the test may take up to 2 hours. It took me 45 minutes and I scored 97%, I was in a hurry to get through this... The HR Manager asked if I could stay to take an additional tests, language, vocabulary... I really rushed and only score 88% on these. She said I did well , and could I obtain a college transcript and my SAT scores. Hmmm, btw, I am in my 50's so that was more than 35 years ago for the SAT score, and 30 years for the college transcript. After I acquired these, and sent them in. The communication flat lined. I sent in an email asking about my candidacy, and the response 3 weeks later was "I have forwarded your documents to the hiring manager for further review, but have not heard from him yet. Let me do a follow up.". So at this point, I really lost interest, and responded with receipts for the cost incurred. And now over 2 weeks later, I still have not see reimbursement. I did get the STANDARD HR email with "Thank you for taking the time to interview recently for our open position. At this time, we have identified a candidate who more closely matches our requirements."
I really can't say I had an interview, just talking to a test administrator/hr manager.
Considering I am current client, and brought in 2 other companies to use their facility... over 9 full racks leased...... I am pulling my investment out, and never never never bringing another client in to He.Net.
The CEO is Mike Leber. I have spoken to him a few times over the years. I know he's a bit of nimrod.

Question 1
Nothing was difficult, it's all remedial questions asked... if you can pass this them you're as genius as their CEO. Basically HS educational level work.
