Indeed Senior Software Engineer interview questions

I uploaded my resume on Indeed.com but didn't apply any job of Indeed. An Indeed recruiter sent email to me asking if I interested in software engineer positions at Indeed. I replied yes. I got phone interview with the recruiter twice in two weeks. There were openings of senior software engineer position in Seattle office. Then I have a technical interview with a engineer online over HackerRank. The question isn't hard at all. I finish the first quickly. But made a small mistake with follow up.

Interview process was very straightforward - within a week I got a talk with recruiter, screening interview, talk with head of department and scheduled onsite interview. So in general interview process is very fast. Interview itself was relatively difficult - 9AM - 5PM with multiple team members. Well, that's usual approach but in this case most of tasks were on very high level. I understand, Indeed looks for good professionals, but that is a high pressure. But what I liked most of those questions were rather practical. Most inconvenient part - their interview team is located in Austin, TX, which is 2 hours difference with West Coast. And you can spend a lot of time in trip... In general interview was interesting, all people were nice, except last thing - see below: BE AWARE: they claim to reimburse you with all reasonable expenses but if decision is negative, then they add you to black list and do not respond. I've lost about $250 in direct expenses. That's a shame.
