Software Engineer Interview Experience - Sunnyvale, California

Process

Interviewed in May 2013, on site with Yahoo for a position of Senior Engineer. The interviewers demonstrated complete and utter disinterest. One interviewer asked a question and looked at the ceiling, then got up and left. Others were similarly disinterested, as if the interview was merely a formality for them. I believe my skills or experience did not matter at all. I felt discriminated against on the basis of race (I am white).
