I was contacted by a recruiter who was very excited about the opportunity. After matching my skills with the requirements I was called by the CTO for a tech. phone screen. We spoke about my job experience and moved on questions about multi-threading, synchronization, communication protocols and OS concepts. After that I was called in for an in-person interview. The interview lasted 4 hours and I met with the entire team 1x1. The technical questions were largely about my background and resume. The entire experience was quite relaxed and the focus was on conversations and not "gotcha" questions. The technical side of questions were about the projects I had worked on, more threading and IPC. I was tested for my ability to explain code and data flow and understand design and architecture. I got a good feeling for everyone's personalities, got answers to questions I had about my role. I was also happy that I was asked what *I* would like to see in an organization such as this. Lunch was a nice touch. I got an offer soon after. The entire process took about a week to ten days.
