Hi folks, I finished the phone screen and the virtual on-site interview with Aruba networks (Silver Peak) recently. The recruiter is asking to schedule a 30 min call with another interviewer who based on my search is a VP. What can I expect in this round ? Please provide your thoughts/ insights. Thanks!

Most probably it’s a job sales call. VP might give you some details on the org, products and R&D his/her teams works on. This might be to make Aruba more appealing to you in case you have other competing offers.
Thanks for your inputs. It turned out to be only technical questions from my past projects. To be honest he was a little condescending. Probably won’t recommend me. Kind of bummed after all these rounds.
Wow that would've been unexpected for you. Silver peak was recently acquired and Aruba has high hopes on it.
Got an offer today. How is the work culture ? How often do they do layoffs ?
Should be behavioral mostly and casual conversation. Can expect one or two technical question. Let us know how it went.
