I applied online. The process took 2 weeks. I interviewed at Hitachi Vantara (Waltham, MA) in Nov 2017
Interview
There were a few phone screenings, an online code pair session, and a half-day in person interview. The primary reason I'm leaving this review is because of how they handled travel. I was living out of state, and had to fly in to Boston. I was asked to pay for the ticket and accommodation and the promise of reimbursement. Well, that was in November 2017 and now it's May 2018 and I have nothing in hand. I email them every month asking what the status of my reimbursement is, and get a canned reply of "it's processing, on it's way". A $500 lesson learned, I guess. Get them to pay for your ticket up front.
Interview questions [1]
Question 1
The phone screenings and code pair sessions were pretty standard. For the in-person interview, there were a number of white boarding and algorithms questions. I was interviewed by 4 (or 5?) different interviewers, each of whom had their own interview style. The one I remember most clearly was about class design for a specific scenario that judged how well I could utilize inheritance and create DRY code.

Interview
Globally it was a good process. They seemed interested along the way, and in the technical interview that propused fun challenges to solve. Moreover, they didn't argue the salary I asked for!
