Process
I was contacted over the phone for an initial chat, followed by an online collaborative editing interview, and then an onsite interview.
I had a feeling I might not be a good fit for the position, as they seemed to require their front-end developers to do both client-side and server-side work, whereas my experience was largely on the client-side.
In the onsite interview, they asked very little front-end-related questions (there were no HTML, CSS, or DOM scripting questions) and mostly asked computer science-type questions.
I ended the interview early as I didn't think I'd be a good fit.
