Process

I went through two interviews.

The first one was with the head of the team. He's in Japan; hence, it was a 30-min phone interview. Very friendly and nice. He told me more about the positions and asked me some Java technical questions. For example, describe garbage collection, difference between vector and array. And then some fit questions, e.g. 5 year plan, why leave current company.

The second one was a face-to-face interview with some VP in another team. He grilled me with all sorts of deep Java technical questions.
