I applied online. The process took 5 weeks. I interviewed at Medidata Solutions (San Francisco, CA)
Interview
It's a time-wasting process. I first spoke with a recruiter, it took a week to get it scheduled with hiring manager. Then no words for over a week and then they want another phone screen with 4 other members and turns out 2 of the 4 members are not available. They didn't find out until the day of the interview. After that, 2 weeks of waiting without a word. Then, recruiter calls and send me an online coding exercise. I completed it the same night and the recruiter never gets back to me!

Question 1
The coding exercise was easy. It is about writing a calculator-like program that can parse the input and put it to a stack.
