Process started through a recruiter who asked some very basic fundamental questions, was then given a phone screen with a developer that consisted of more in depth questions but still really the basics a bit more about patterns and practices. So far so good and received positive feedback from the recruiter. Then came the face-to-face this consisted of your typical panel interview with a whiteboard session. The panel interviewers were both sr developers and were very stiff and uncomfortable. One had non-stop eye contact and the other barely any at all. Being a female of american descent I am the minority in the IT field and am used to this sort of behavior. However, I knew after about 5 minutes I would not accept an offer with this team. In any case I tried my best to make the time bearable. Was asked to write some quick code converting string to integer for a mission critical app. When I asked questions to narrow down the requirements the interviewer was flustered and seemed to be irritated. So I choose a dependency injection pattern to which they replied no make it simpler. I thought the idea was to show my skill? Luckily, in the end I did not receive an offer with the feedback that my design / UI skills were not advanced enough. I likely would not have accepted an offer as I could not imagine working with the two that I interviewed with and also don't care to be a web designer or UI developer.
