Web Developer Interview Experience - Sunnyvale, California

February 1, 2007
Neutral ExperienceNo Response

Process

My interview took all day long and was exhausting. However, some people have been hired after interviews with a few people, finishing within an hour.

Later, I became a hiring manager and noticed that the process depends on the availability of interviewers and their work schedules (or laziness).

Many interviewers do not have the ability to judge technical skills (when hiring an engineer), so they simply see if they personally like the candidate or not.

Questions

Very vague questions like:

  • What is a DTD?
  • What is a box model?
