Quick discussion with recruiter and agreed to proceed for lead developer position (for 14 years of total experience). After 2 days phone interview scheduled with hiring manager for sr developer position. When I rejected the interview, recruiter called and confirmed that I would be considered for lead developer position. I agreed and took phone interview with hiring manager who is an arrogant desi guy who doesn't know how to interview candidates and I had to raise my voice to convince that I am the right candidate.

They have invited me for missisauga office. Hiring manager along with one more manager asked only design pattern scenarios, data structures in .NET and unit testing questions. Asked me to write code on paper. Everything was ok. In the end, he mentioned that he will consider me for sr developer position.

I had made it clear to recruiter that I will not accept anything other than lead developer. Didn't bother to follow up and was not ready to work with a manager who doesn't have both soft and technical skills.

I had questions on design patterns scenarios like factory, DI, observer etc.
