J'ai postulé via un recruteur. Le processus a pris 2 jours. J'ai passé un entretien chez Nordstrom (Los Angeles, CA) en juin 2015
Entretien
Interview was held in their downtown LA Location. The hiring manager Raj was a very cool guy. Seemed very down to earth. His team were a mixture of laid back guys, show off types (the Asian guys) and some frustrated guys (release & QA managers).
I like the way they interviewed. They were not interested in asking stupid questions like "What is an interface. What is a generic". We can all read a book and memorize all that nonsense. They wanted to see how I thought, how I resolved issues and how I handled pressure. That to me is far more important than asking what is this and what is that. They did grill me, but they wanted to make sure I would be a good match for their team both on a technical and at a human level. They're not just obsessed about bringing drones in from India.
But I did get the impression their developers were very limited in their skill set. Two of the guys I was speaking to, only knew middleware coding. When I bought up questions about AngularJS, they had no idea as to what I was talking about. Full stack developers they are not. I could see someone getting frustrated with the limited technology stack used quite quickly.
Questions d'entretien [1]
Question 1
How would you architect a system like Twitter. Explain every level in detail.
Have you used TPL for threading in a C# environment (not really much to talk about here).
Explain the different Bindings when using WCF.
Explain how to check expressions (start vs stop).

Entretien
Phone screen followed by a four-interview loop. Phone screen was as you'd expect. Loop consisted of an architecture panel, behavioral, behavioral, then two leetcode-style questions. One of them was based on a sorting algorithm.

Question 1
Asked questions based on implementing sorting algorithms
Interview round included 4x45 min loop interview: behavioral, trendsetter, coding, and system design. For the behavioral and trendsetter, I was asked mostly about experiences. My trendsetter got really technical, as I was asked system design questions...

4 loop interviews: 1st round system design, 2nd round behavioral round, 3rd round Bar raiser, 4th round coding round. Overall, the process was good. I wasn't very well prepared for system design round
