Posted Jul 2012 · Candidate report, summarized by Dataford

I kicked things off with a fairly short phone interview where a few questions were technical, but the bulk of it was about my background and recent projects.

After that, I got invited for an onsite a couple of weeks later, and the travel setup was easy.

On the ground, the onsite included three technical interviews plus several more general conversations, and there was even a lunch break to give some breathing room. I remember the interviewers being genuinely nice, and that made the process feel less like a trap and more like a real evaluation of how I worked. In my case, the first onsite interviewer also treated the first meeting as often non-technical—mostly focused on my background—though I didn’t get the strong feeling they had deeply reviewed
