Senior Software Engineer Interview Experience

Process

One hour technical/coding interview. Honestly, pretty easy question to answer about hierarchy in Java. After that was the loop: 1 coding question, 1 coding question about data structures, a bartender who was a culture check, and a design question. Which was a hectic mess. One of the people who were supposed to interview showed up 20 minutes late. The other one was asking questions but wording them weirdly, so it was hard to figure out what they wanted exactly. The other two, though, were great, and no problems with the process. For a big company, you'd think they would have their hiring process figured out, but they obviously do not. I was even sent the wrong order on what people were going to be interviewing me on. One of them even did the wrong interview part and didn't notice until halfway through.
