Process

I got a call from the recruiter.

The recruiter asked a couple of behavioral questions, then scheduled me in for a two-hour technical phone interview with two hiring managers and a senior engineer.

The hiring manager sounded a little dull (didn't seem to care), but the senior engineer was good.

Overall, it was a good experience.
