Senior Software Engineer Interview Experience - Manchester, United Kingdom
Process
Initially, I spoke to the recruiter and had a good chat. This was followed by a conversation with the local director, and then a couple of technical and soft skill interviews.
The process was pretty smooth and well-organized. The technical interview was fairly straightforward, though I'd advise breaking them up over a couple of days.
Everybody I spoke to was very easy-going and of a high caliber. The work culture also seems very good.
The entire process took maybe 3-4 weeks from initial conversations to signing contracts.
