Engineering Manager Interview Experience - Austin, Texas
Process
Screening call with HR. Phone interview with staff engineer currently leading the team.
We had a quality get-to-know-each other, respectful, high-level technical conversation. I was told I was a strong candidate, but I did not make it to the panel phone interview as they found someone that had been managing that type of team in his most recent position (which I wasn't). The entire process was very lengthy due to people being on vacation.
