Software Development Engineer Interview Experience - Seattle, Washington
Process
Pretty standard based on what everyone else on here said.
A 45-minute phone interview with basic technical questions was followed by three-hour onsite interviews. The onsite portion increased in difficulty. The first and last interviewers seemed engaged. The second interviewer was on his phone while I was trying to solve questions and seemed generally uninterested in being there.
Other than that, the whole process was pleasant.
