Me postulé a través de un reclutador. Acudí a una entrevista en Zocdoc (New York, NY) en may 2015
Entrevista
Their recruiter reached out to me on LinkedIn. I am a local candidate, so I only had 1 phone interview before the onsite. Their office is located in a cool building in a cool neighborhood. The recruiter asked me to allocate 4 hours for the interview loops.
Three interviewers were a engineering director, a principal engineer, and a more jr software engineer. All of them are very professional, which made the whole experience very positive. After 3 rounds, I assumed it was done according to info here, I was asked to stay for the 4th round. Then about 5 mins later, the coordinator stopped by saying the final interviewer was stuck at a meeting.
About 1 week later, I was told no offer. They encourage me to re-apply after xx months time frame (i always find this part amusing). My overall impression about zocdoc and interview are:
- a solid startup with a nice business model.
- their technology, at least for the team I was applying, was out of date. yeah, and it's a .net shop.
- a couple of onsite questions are considerably harder than phone interview. probably because it was a 'principal' position.

Initial communication with HR was good with timely schedule for technical discussion.
Technical discussion was more like to find out what can be taken back and applied at their end, rather than what was used in terms of distributed systems, tech stack used. This has become norm nowadays to interview less experienced professional for senior folks in initial rounds. I sense they are not in position to judge correctly.

Entrevista
Skype interview for 45 minutes, 1st in-person for 4 hours with 4 engineers and 2nd in-person for 1 hour with CTO. The skype and CTO interview are most challenging. Be prepared to get to the white board and write code. I got a lot of blank stares for using ansi sql and scala syntax. They are used to t-sql and whatever microsoft uses to write code

Lots of SQL group by having type questions. Star schema design questions. One programming question about random generators. briefly touched upon asymptotic analysis of tree traversal algorithms.
A Skype interview followed by in house with 3 principal engineers followed by director, cto and the vp of engg. The interview questions were certainly interesting and thought provoking. The overall end to end experience was neutral to slightly negative.
