Senior Software Engineer Interview Experience - Mountain View, California
Process
The interview process seemed entirely focused on efficient searching algorithms and asked no questions to assess my knowledge of the area I was interviewing for. In fact, none of the interviewers had any background in the area I was interviewing for; rather, they appeared to be somewhat randomly selected.
I also found the interviewers to be somewhat unenthusiastic about their jobs and eager for the day to be over.
