Interviewed with 3 people: senior engineer, principal engineer and the director. All of them asked about previous job experience. Then they asked some brain teaser and technical questions. All the technical questions were database related: *) what type of indexing needed for a search engine *) what type of indexing needed to store words for spell checker My only gripe about this interview was the engineers sometimes did not explain the problem very clearly. When I asked for more details, their hints were not helpful.

Easily the worst set of interviews I've ever had. I had eight 1-1 interviews over a period of 3 days (it seemed they couldn't make their minds or whatever). 1. Guy1 had questions on (and only on) fibonacci trees (for some strange reason he seemed to be enamored with it ). I later found from friends at the company that this was his (only!) pet question. 2. Guy2's english was was beyond comprehension; the guy seemed to be a south east Asian. I had to ask for clarification multiple times. The guy was really adamant if I showed any disagreement to his 'correct' answers. 3. Guy3 was completely disinterested for whatever reason. His questions were technical but easy. There were a couple of good interviews but in general the experience was very bad. The company doesn't seem to realize that interviews are a process where not only should the interviewee impress the interviewer, but the interviewer (and the company) strive to impress the interviewee.
