I applied online. The process took 5 days. I interviewed at Groupon in Mar 2013
Interview
Applied on Groupon careers website.
1st round phone screen - Friendly to talk with. 2 coding questions.
2nd round phone screen - Started with telling about the projects in his team, god knows what was he talking. Then asked questions about my previous projects and he could not understand what I was trying to explain, instead kept on breaking me in the middle to ask some stupid questions in a rude tone. This discussion went on for abut 30 minutes. Then a coding question to determine the second frequent number in an input array.
