I applied online. The process took 2 days. I interviewed at Infinera (Bengaluru) in Mar 2016
Interview
I applied for the position at Bangalore location. The HR asked me to come for a face-2-face. I requested him for a telephone round with the hiring manager to understand the requirements mutually to sort out any incompatibilities earlier , as it is a senior position. The telephone interview was scheduled , but some other manager ( not the hiring team's ) speaks to you over phone...I told him clearly what my experience is , what might and might not suit them etc and requested him to clearly convey the same to the concerned hiring manager before deciding to call me for a f-2-f. But it never happened, they called me for a f-2-f, then asked me if I have the skills that I have told over phone that I don't have, then HR comes to you and says "Sorry..it is not positive..". Wasting time on both sides due to lack of coordination or lack of seriousness..
I applied through an employee referral. I interviewed at Infinera (Bengaluru) in Nov 2013
Interview
Interview was good. Tech talk followed by many individual interviews. It takes usually a complete day. Lunch will be provided by the management. Interviews will be fully technical and hence it is better to prepare thorough before going. Nothing else to tell..
