Two technical phone screens, followed by an on-site interview.
The HR department was on the spot with helping out scheduling the interviews and quick to respond back. This was a great outlook to have, seeing people involved with the process. However, the technical on-site interviews were the worst I ever had. I met with some senior principal engineers who were more interested in high-level things and kept pressing on topics which they knew I was not very familiar with. At some point, I felt the interviewer was trying to ask questions on a topic that I had already told him I was not familiar with. Another interviewer asked about basic Java questions, a few design patterns, and some algorithm questions that I was able to answer. Another interviewer was too rude while talking about the company and the kind of work she was doing. She acted like what she was doing was so high-level no one else could do it. A lot of the questions they asked were DB-related too. And some of the SQL questions they asked were tricky SQL questions, so I kind of figured that the interviewer was trying to play me by just asking those questions. At that point, I realized that the culture they have is not that great. The concept behind the company is great, and I am sure they will grow, but with people like the ones I met during the interview, I feel it's not a great place to work.
