Process

Behavioral and programming background questions were asked during the phone screen.

There were five in-person interviews in San Francisco. Questions covered regular expressions, data sorting, irrelevant math problems, and merge sort.

After the interviews, I was called over the phone to interview in another division. I was asked a dynamic programming question, but I doubt the interviewer recognized it as such, rather than simply a 'well-known' algorithm.

There was too much focus on coding and parroting answers to well-known problems, with little to no original problem-solving.
