You know that old saying, "If it sounds to good to be true, it probably is" - well, that's the case with Netflix. I was attracted to the company primarily due to their focus on culture. Like all others that have interviewed at Netflix, I read their culture deck. One of the things that stood out to me was that they don't allow "Brilliant Jerks" in their teams. But lo and behold, the very first face-to-face interview I had was with a....you guessed it... "Brilliant Jerk" ....from Harvard. He asked me where I was from because he noticed a slight accent. Los Angeles, dude. He also played a little 'brain twister' (yeah, one of THOSE) with a rubic's cube. It contributed nothing to the conversation but he seems to enjoy making himself look smarter than the person he is interviewing. The other people I interviewed with were more reasonable, although none of them seemed happy. In fact, one of them said he's been unhappy for a year but things are starting to be better. Okayyy....

The interview process itself did not take too long - the recruiter quickly schedules all interviews within one week, often these are same day or back to back depending on convenience. Feedback is quick and prompt and the recruiter is super responsive
