Netflix Sr. Software Engineer interview questions

Got contacted by Recruiter through referral, then got setup with a phone chat with a manager of a team. Conversation with manager was good. Got the go-ahead for a phone screen. Phone screen interviewer was awkward as he was all over the place. Asks me some questions about multithreading which I answered right. Asks me about preventing deadlocks and ends up saying I could prevent it in a certain way and he forgot that I had already mentioned that solution to him at the beginning. Small coding question on multithreading - probably 7 lines of code - which I ended up getting right with a little bit of help. There were 15mins left and he jumps to check if I had any questions for him making me wonder whether he was done asking me stuff. I start asking him questions about the team/project/challenges. Then suddenly jumps back to ask me some more technical questions regarding how I'd handle operations. Answered everything fine I thought. Ended up getting same email from them about not having the perfect background. Anyways, probably the most haphazard phone screen I've had in my career as the interviewer lacked structure. Didn't feel like the interviewer was prepared himself. Could've been an outlier in the company as I've heard great things about them. Don't waste your time interviewing here unless you're sure you have exactly the 'perfect background' for the role.

Overall it's very good, interviewers are very nice and knowledgeable. All three senior developers have different focus: one general about your background and depth of interested areas; one review the take home test; another mainly for a coding test. And hiring manager mainly asked some concepts/knowledge and some design issues. HR person focused on personality, culture, etc. Have to say that the lunch was a little late at 2pm, and it's simple cold lunch which can be improved thinking about intensive interview day :)
