Senior Software Engineer Interview Experience - Burbank, California
Process
I interviewed for a DevOps/Infrastructure position. First, there was an initial call with the manager. Then, I was invited to a panel of four interviews that consisted of behavioral questions, system design, and various questions related to security, DevOps, and my background. There were no LeetCode-type questions.
Then, there was a final interview with the manager’s boss that seemed more like a formality. The team seemed really great, and the work seemed interesting, so I accepted the offer.
