Technical Senior Director Interview Experience - San Jose, California
Process
Multiple in-person, WebEx, and telephone interviews were conducted.
There was no clear script or interview organization among team members.
Ultimately, one of the interviewers was apparently awarded an open slot for a different job, and the role I interviewed for was not re-hired.
It was a very strange process.
The company appears, from the outside, to be high conflict and internally focused.
