The hiring process started with meeting a recruiting manager.

He explained the company, the core values, and the culture. Then I was taken on a grand tour of the facility. It was actually a terrific experience, and a huge part of my decision to go forward.

Then about a week went by before a 30-minute phone interview could be scheduled with a solution architect. This one probably played a huge part in their decision to go forward with me.

Then another week went by before the 2-hour in-person interview, with two different solution architects. I was extended an offer at this time, which was formalized over the next few days.

The phone interview tested me on various technical skills, like web-related questions, database questions, and computer science questions.

My interview centered on laying out a solution for a mobile product, based on a set of requirements. We covered the data layer, the service layer, and the beginnings of a possible web-based front end.
