Software Development Engineer Interview Experience - Redmond, Washington
Process
It was a pretty relaxing interview. It wasn't like normal interviews where I was barraged with questions; this was more like a conversation. I had two interviewers back to back. They both asked me white-board questions and helped me solve the problems.
