Process
A fairly standard multi-round talking interview process. No deeply technical interviews for this management role, but lots of discussion about how to approach common management problems. I spent time with engineers, product folks, peer managers, and peers of the hiring manager.
Questions
How would you approach mentoring and growing junior software engineers versus senior software engineers?
