I applied online. The process took 2 weeks. I interviewed at Spatial Front (Washington, DC) in May 2018
Interview
I had two phone interviews with Spatial Front. The first was a 10 minute series of questions about my experience and skill set. The second interview lasted 30 minutes, and they asked more detailed questions about my experience with various technologies. THere weren't any problem solving questions or any test of skills or knowledge. It sounded like they were looking for really specific areas of experience and just wanted candidates who matched them.

Interview
Technical and behavioral video call - the technical interviewer was extremely nice and asked me a few concept and data structure questions for the languages I said I knew. I also coded in the coding language I was most comfortable in using an online IDE.

- which data structure is filo
- write a function that takes in a string and returns the reverse

By far the most unprofessional interview I've ever experienced. The interviewer wasn't part of the team I would be working on, so didn't know anything about the project or the technologies that were required. Because he didn't know anything about the project, he went straight to technical questions, but asked me to first wait while he googled some questions related to the library I would be using. Then we switched over to algorithms, and I was actually asked to code inside the Google Meet's one-line chatbox. He showed up late and was obvious by his first question that he didn't even glance at my resume, not to mention he had the TV on the whole time in the background. Just a nightmare experience that would set anyone back mentally. The only positive thing is that the person from HR was very efficient responding through email.
