Senior Software Engineer Interview Experience - Seattle, Washington
Process
The recruiter and phone interviewer were very nice.
However, the individual who conducted the design interview was the most arrogant person I have ever met.
Most interviewers try to elicit the best or worst from a candidate. I felt this interviewer was looking for the worst.
It was an extremely unpleasant interview, and I decided I did not want to work in such a hostile environment.
The hiring manager was also in a hurry during his interview. He went off camera, which felt rushed, but I was okay with that. The engineer who conducted the design interview, however, had the worst attitude!
