Entrevista
I've been contacted via LinkedIn and as this position is close match to my current position with other global vendor, I've sent them my CV. First interview with HR in Ireland over the phone (1 hour) rather straight forward and professional. After initial interview, scheduled technical screening/interview and their HR make huge faux pas not communicating date/time correctly (at least that was excuse received from local hiring office) ending up with interviewer showing up 50 min late on scheduled interview. After that 1:1 which passed totally ok (2 hours chat about previous experiences, expectations,....) no follow up in any form for 2.5 months (after pinging HR: "we'll follow up after we get answer from hiring mgr."...). Pending...
Preguntas de entrevista [1]
Pregunta 1
Nothing special/complicated on both interviews, HR initial and technical screening. More in chit-chat form.
1. Recruiter call 2. First round with hiring manager 3. Second round with director and a member of another team The interview process was concise and efficient. VMware talent team kept me in the loop at all times.
Preguntas de entrevista [2]
Pregunta 1
First interview with the hiring manager - situational/behavioral questions; what challenges I have faced, how I dealt with specific situations, and more Second interview with the director - random questions and one technical question (the director asked to do role play as a TAM member and asked how I'd handle a version update)
The first question of my second interview was more of a statement than a question. The director shared his concern about my cultural fit because of my background (from the US) and asked me how I would overcome the cultural difference. I felt the first question revealed how he judged me before the interview, and it was tough trying to turn the table.

I had three one- hour interviews before i got offered a job, within around 2 weeks. In one I had to give a short presentation which required around half an hour of preparation in advance.

Entrevista
Applied via VMware Careers webpage and got a reply from Talent Acquisition person in 1 business week.
In the job description, only English was required (apart from technical skills) and I was asked if I speak the local language fluently.
Unfortunately, I recently moved from another country and that was a reason for rejection.
To recap:
> Don't mention the local language in the job description
> Job description itself in English (obviously)
>> Require the potential candidate to be fluent in local language by default
