Engineering Manager Interview Experience - Seattle, Washington
Process
I applied for an Engineering Manager position on Redfin's website. The recruiter got back to me via email, provided some information about the interview process, and scheduled the first round of interviews with the VP of Engineering.
The VP of Engineering had the wrong resume, and I had to send mine during the interview process. She mentioned she was not prepared for my resume. The interview process consisted of generic behavioral/team fit questions. We had a good chat for about an hour.
The recruiter sent a generic rejection email a few days later and then ghosted me when I asked for feedback.
Questions
