Process

I had an interview with about five developers on site. They seemed to be impressed with my resume, and I did not get any puzzle or problem-solving type questions. We only discussed my experience.

The interview lasted about six hours.

I got a callback the next week with the verbal offer. I had to accept on the spot, which put a little pressure on me. After the verbal offer, I received the written offer and had to go through a bunch of paperwork. It took about two weeks.
