Lead Developer Interview Experience - Los Angeles, California
Process
I interviewed for the position of embedded software engineer. The process is unnecessarily long and consisted of:
- An hour-long initial phone interview with HR.
- An hour-long online coding test and phone interview with a software engineer.
After "passing" the coding test, you will be asked to solve a programming assignment and email them a zip file with your solution, Makefiles, and a short write-up. This takes at least a few days.
Passing this gets you invited to the day-long on-site interview where you have to answer technical and programming questions.
