Indeed interview questions

In-person in Seattle, one one-hour whiteboard, one 1.5 hour programming exercise. On-site in Austin, full day of several whiteboard interviews for algorithms, a code review, an architecture discussion, and a debrief with director-levels. Questions relevant to search engines, scaling data processing, and architecture of web services (while still requiring implementation of algorithms).

Phone conversation was set up after initial application. The interaction over the phone was very transactional, like the interviewer was required to achieve a call quota for HR. I could hear my answers being furiously typed out, and the interviewer had no real reaction or conversation to contribute. They talked a million miles a minute and a call that was scheduled to last 30 minutes was over in 10. For a place that asks for a "cool sense of humor" in its job descriptions, this interview was the least cool and the least humorous, and made me rethink my interest in the company.
