Web Developer Interview Experience - San Jose, California
Process
A recruiter contacted me via LinkedIn InMail.
After two weeks, I had my introductory round. Two weeks later, I had the same introductory round with the same recruiter.
Then, he scheduled a technical phone interview. It went well. The interviewer gradually increased the question difficulty.
Next, they scheduled two 45-minute coding interviews on Collabedit. Unfortunately, half an hour before my coding interview, I received an email stating the position had been filled.
