Process

The process began on the phone, followed by three in-person interviews. The interviewer decided that I should cycle through the teams that were hiring to see if I would be a good fit for any of them.

Each team was unique enough to offer different questions about different technologies.

Questions

There were more abstract estimations than I expected.

The "how many windows in NYC" type questions were rampant, almost to a point where I was questioning the interviewer.
