The interview process included a phone interview and an on-site interview.
Both interviews involved specific programming problems, and I was asked to write unit tests.
The on-site interview consisted of five 45-minute sessions focused on programming problems, with a lunch meeting with an employee in between.
Overall, the experience felt impersonal. I felt they were primarily interested in my coding abilities rather than my interest in the role or my previous experience.
I was also disappointed to have lunch with an older hardware engineer when I was applying for a software engineer position.
It was difficult to gain a clear sense of my potential co-workers or my day-to-day responsibilities.
