Interview
The Hiring Process at Technorati was very unprofessional.
Interview questions [1]
Question 1
The questions were very straightforward the issues I had were with the lack of communication after the excessive amount of phone interviews i had. I had an initial call with HR and then 4 more calls with Directors and VP's and then the communication line went dead. I waited around a week before reaching back out to see what next steps if any would be since I was told they'd get back to me after my last call to set up an office visit. I emailed and called the director about 3 times and HR about 2 times and never got a reply back. You'd think after 5 interviews Technorati would be professional and someone would have reached back out telling me they'd gone another direction instead of wasting my time. Very Disappointing experience.

Interview
Internal HR managed the process; competently. Spoke to HR representative for a few minutes after responding to internet job posting (LinkedIn), then a more detailed technical discussion. A lot of focus on design; quite a few technologies were mentioned, but main focus was on Java.
In-person followed with 3 people; Engineering Manager and 2 engineers. Good perceptive questions, not relying on "gotcha" questions, with enough feedback to create a comfortable conversation.
Received offer. All interactions were handled quickly, professionally, respectfully.
