Technical
I had a phone interview for an entry level position with Progeny Systems, arranged by John Galt staffing. It was supposed to be with two team members but turned out to be around 4 or 5. While one person was professional, the others weren't. There was a lot of nitpicking and outdated info, like saying HTML5 is turning complete and should be listed as a programming language. They were looking for way more than a typical university grad could offer.
