Operations Engineer Interview Experience - Palo Alto, California
Process
Probably the best interview process I have ever been in. Everyone I was in contact with, from start to finish, was excited about the company, very kind, and quick to respond.
Both the technical screen and on-site had a good mix of technical and soft skill-related questions. It felt more like a conversation than an interview. The technical questions were related to the job at hand. The interviewers were encouraging and wanted you to succeed, helping to steer you in the right direction if you wandered too far. The recruiters even reminded me to move my car during the interview, so I didn't have to worry about getting a ticket.
Overall, a very pleasant experience.
