Senior Software Developer Interview Experience - London, United Kingdom
Process
A really nice feeling.
I had one phone interview, one Skype interview, a full day in London, and one more phone interview with New York.
I met with developers, team leaders, my current senior manager, human resources, and some really senior people.
All steps included challenging questions, and I felt they wanted to help me grow rather than just making me work.
