Software Development Engineer In Test (SDET) II Interview Experience - Redmond, Washington
Process
I submitted my resume and spoke briefly with a representative at the job fair on campus. I received a call back a couple of days later.
They were extremely fast to schedule an on-site interview, which took place in about two weeks. The interview was not difficult, but it was quite long, lasting approximately 8 hours in total (9 am to 6 pm). I became very tired by the end.
The offer was sent out the following day.
