Engineer Interview Experience - San Francisco, California

Process

Two phone interviews and then they flew me out for a face-to-face interview. When I arrived, I was greeted with some changes to the interview roster, but nothing major. Unfortunately, the position that I applied for had not been adequately explained in their job requirements. They had been asking for one type of role, which I currently occupy at a different company, and after conversations, discovered they were looking for something completely different. Considering I would not have applied for the job had I known they needed a different skill set entirely than what they were asking for, I would advise anyone applying to be very thorough during the phone screening process before wasting your time. As it is, I lost some vacation time and some out-of-pocket expense money.
