I had a good phone screening, and then a video call. The person on the video call didn't say they were the CEO but asked a bunch of personal stuff about my relationship status and "family values." I mentioned I like a hybrid schedule for focusing on work, and they said "we don't do that here. Even when the roads are iced over, we just come in a few hours late."

Behavioral Technical

The interview process included a phone interview lasting about 30 minutes, followed by a 30-45 minute WebEx interview, and then an onsite interview. I received feedback after each stage within a week. For the onsite, I had to wake up at 4 AM to fly in for the interview and then fly back the same day. They mentioned a schedule but seemed unsure about who I was meeting next, and I ended up talking to people both inside and outside my potential department, answering similar questions multiple times. They described their work as not fitting typical software development workflows like agile, even though it's a software company. Initially, they distinguished between 'Developer Engineer' and 'Software Engineer' roles, but during the onsite, they appeared to be the same position. Most people seemed friendly. When I asked for feedback, I just got general interview tips, which was disappointing given the number of interviews they conduct.

Behavioral Technical Presentation

So I had a phone interview first, then a Skype video interview, and finally an on-site interview at their office. There, I gave a 15-minute presentation and then talked one-on-one with 4 developers and the President. They made me feel really comfortable, and I liked the whole thing. I was super impressed with the company overall. The questions were mainly about my current job and if my skills matched what they need, and also about how I'd fit their culture and how long I'd stay.

  • Are you certain that you wish to reside in Texas?
