Nothing out of the ordinary, aside from technical questions targeting specific limitations to the technology and how I'd work around them as well as questions regarding specific nuances of technology.
I applied through a staffing agency. I interviewed at ClearStory Data (Chicago, IL) in Aug 2014
Interview
- Had an initial phone screen with a recruiting company. Very easy. Spent more time looking at how I'd fit culturally.
- Went in for a first meeting with chief UX architect and one developer who stayed light for an introduction. Nothing formal.
- Went back for full interview with all of the developers working in that office except 1 (3 guys + chief UX again)

Question 1
Can't remember anymore but they were around how I would build a reusable component in SASS/LESS, review this code for me, what's MVC, etc
I applied in-person. The process took 3 weeks. I interviewed at ClearStory Data
Interview
HR asked me to apply online and gave me their direct emails.
Their head of HR complained how difficult it is to fill the particular position I was interested in.
We chatted at their HQ and everything appeared normal. I applied officially with my resume and no more interviews were forthcoming.
Per crunchbase their funding is $30 million. With a burn rate of $3 million per month this company
may crash and burn by year end 2015 without further infusion of capital.
I was very uncomfortable when interviewer invaded my personal space and would not get out of my
face probably trying to guess my age. Totally disappointing abuse.
