Senior Software Engineer Interview Experience - Seattle, Washington
Process
Called for an interview, which was mostly system design.
I received great feedback. They mentioned they didn't have many questions because I addressed all the potential weaknesses in the design they were looking for and that I would be hearing back soon.
After three weeks, I was ghosted. I received an automated email stating the position was no longer available, so I wasted my time on a ghost job.
Questions
Standard system design of a scalable application
