I applied online. The process took 7 weeks. I interviewed at PTC (New York, NY) in Jul 2019
Interview
Applied on LinkedIn. Got a call from recruiter about the opportunity. He asked me to read a bit more about their products. Had a call with a tech lead about my experience and comfort at exploring new technologies. Got called for an on-site interview.
Two days before the interview, they sent me a homework with 3D models. I was supposed to do something like Google Street view with it. I implemented a simple double click and move to Target.
Interview process included:
Brainstorming about the homework
Behavioral questions
White boarding (longest common substring) I got it partially correct but explained where I went wrong.
The interview was on a Friday. Got an offer on Monday. Overall positive experience. I found people at PTC really, really cool! And the tech there is just beyond Iron Man Jarvis level!

The interviews were not hard (little to no behavioral questions) but they were time consuming. I asked to speak with a rep with a similar position and they said no. They gave me only 2 business days to accept the offer and refused to extend the decision making period.
Overall not the best experience but I took the job any ways and it was a wise decision!
