I applied through an employee referral. The process took 3 days. I interviewed at Indeed (Hyderâbâd) in Mar 2016
Interview
I was referred to by one of my friends, I got a call from their HR. First there was a hackerrank test followed by 4 rounds of onsite interviews. HR was very co-operative, in scheduling interviews for me.

Q-3: I forgot
Round-2:
Questions about recent projects
Given a k-ary tree with weights at each node, find path to leaf with shortest weight. I was asked to code for this. What if this is a graph? Only time complexity was done for this.
Round-3
Merge Sort on Magnetic Tapes

Bar raiser, questions about how to fetch results at indeed, as in heuristics used.
I applied through college or university. The process took 2 days. I interviewed at Indeed (Austin, TX) in Mar 2016
Interview
I was flown down to Austin, all expenses paid by Indeed. The first day, we just had a dinner and could chat with some engineers from the company. The next day, we went to the office at 8am and started with some presentations. Then, there were 3 whiteboard interviews with different engineers, each an hour long. After that, lunch, then a 90 minute coding exercise. Ended with more presentations.

Question 1
Can't get into specifics because the NDA, but they were all what I would expect. Know your data structures and how to analyze runtime efficiency.
I applied online. The process took 3 weeks. I interviewed at Indeed
Interview
Applied Online and was given an assessment 10 days later. The question was easy but it took a long time to decipher what they wanted. The description was way too complex for the problem and some of it was a bit misleading. Didn't have enough time after that to implement the best possible solution to the problem. The assessment was also given through HackerRank, and I am not a fan.
