Senior Software Engineer Interview Experience

Process

They spent more time asking me about the software development life cycle than asking me questions about my work experience. They asked very few technical questions. Instead, they asked me a great deal of open-ended questions (e.g. "What are your strengths/weaknesses?", "Rate yourself from 1 to 10 on X", etc.).

Questions

If you were to describe the ideal software development life cycle, what would it be?
