J'ai postulé via un recruteur. Le processus a pris 1 semaine. J'ai passé un entretien chez Ancestry (San Francisco, CA) en juill. 2012
Entretien
First round was a phone interview where the focus was pretty much on Web Development, Design Patterns, MVC, SOA and best practices.
Next day received an invite for an In-Person interview to meet their team. The in person interview was mostly based on a skills test, which is to build a web project for a requirement. Although I could not complete the requirement to the full, I was able to justify my approach and was able to explain intent behind the code that I wrote. They were definitely not interested in UI nor were they interested in seeing you complete the whole requirement. Their focus was purely on your thinking abilities and the way you would approach a given problem.
They strongly believe in AGILE development practices and anything you say about AGILE must be accurate and right.
