I applied online. The process took 3 weeks. I interviewed at Ancestry (Provo, UT) in Jan 2016
Interview
I had a 30 minute phone screening where several members of the team asked me some basic questions about Java, JavaScript and SQL. They also asked me to talk about some of the experiences that I put on my Resume. I was then flown out for a 3 hour on-site interview. They asked questions about Java and design principles and gave me some logic questions. We also further discussed my background, strengths, and weaknesses.
