Brief phone call then onsite interview. First half included behavioral questions as well as past experience. Second half was a technical assessment including OOP, SQL, and algorithms and data structures.

Interview
After applying for the open position online, I was contacted by an in-house recruiter who set me up for a qualifying interview with someone in HR. The qualifying interviewer seemed self-conscious about having few details to provide me regarding the position. The listing had been vague, and I'd wanted to know a little more about what the specific product to be acquired was. I felt like the interviewer wasn't pleased that I was curious and engaged. That made for an odd experience, since typically that's something interviewers are keen on.
