Software Development Engineer In Test (SDET) Interview Experience - Redmond, Washington
Process
Initially, I was contacted by a recruiter. I had a quick phone screening and then was called for an onsite interview.
The onsite interview was horrible because one of the interviewers was jumping randomly between questions. I believe the interviewer was looking for some answers online on the spot. The interviewer would laugh instead of correcting and would always try to invalidate my answers. I had made up my mind then.
