Software Engineer Interview Experience - Bellevue, Washington
Process
I first saw this hiring post at a software conference.
After sending my resume, I received an interview request in about one week.
It was supposed to be a phone interview, but I went to the interviewer's office because I am local.
The interviewer was pretty nice, and I had a positive experience overall.
