Software Engineer Interview Experience - Seattle, Washington
Process
I had three rounds of a 45-minute interview with principal software engineers.
They asked appropriate questions for my level; however, the third interviewer didn't attend.
The interview was scheduled for 4 p.m. PST.
Because I lived in a different time zone, I waited until 7 p.m. CST that night.
How's that for professionalism?
