Senior Software Engineer Interview Experience - Seattle, Washington
Process
The interview process consisted of two coding rounds and one round with the hiring manager.
The coding questions were basic LeetCode problems, but the hiring manager was a bit annoying.
He challenged all of my background. It was supposed to be a system design round, but he didn't ask me any technical questions.
Why not just reject me directly before I passed all the coding rounds? All the interviews were at midnight in the US.
