Friendly questions focused on work and people skills.Friendly questions focused on work and people skills.The interview process is relaxed, but technical. If you know what you're doing then the entire process is a pleasure.
The 1st interview was with the manager. Discussed several of my past projects. Many of which aligned perfectly with their current projects. So, the manager was excited, and I was optimistic. The tech interview consisted entirely of one, timed, hackerrank session where all my keystrokes were recorded for later analysis. I was supposed to solve some meaningless coding puzzle that made absolutely no sense. And this was supposed to be a research position. I can't remember the details, because the rules were so arbitrary. Something about taking a vector of numeric sub-vectors, finding the max value for every 3rd entry, etc. Then move the vectors around or something -- total nonsense. I asked for an explanation for what problem was to be solved, what skills this was supposed to demonstrate, and the meaning of the rules. I got no help at all from the interviewer. I got the impression that he didn't understand it either. So, I just started writing code to put the data into some kind of structure, until time ran out. I had years of experience successfully doing exactly what this company does and was completely removed from all consideration because of 1 hackerrank puzzle, that made no sense, and no one could/would explain. I suppose I should be glad to learn how this company operates early. Apparently, developers are not encouraged to understand their tasks before they start slinging code. And again, this was a research position.

Lowball offer that was insulting. The “final” salary offer (105) was less than the range listed on the posting (110-138) even though I have all req qualifications and 2x years of experience they were looking for. Basic process: hiring manager, technical assessment interview, sr vp interview

Tell me about the your development process. Tell me about yourself.
Stay away from this company. Terrible recruiting process, there’s a reason people work for larger DoD contractors. Completely wasted my time and made me come on-site going through the interview circuit. I had told them upfront about salary expectations and clearance, but somehow they used that to rescind my offer a week later. Such a joke.
