Process
Never-ending coding challenges online where they watch you code through your webcam.
Very creepy and overly invasive, just to make sure you don't "google anything." Apparently, the engineers at IBM Watson never forget anything and all have photographic memories.
Absolutely ridiculous and not worth what they're paying, considering they're in NYC.
