Received and Accepted Offer

Interviewed May 2009 (took a day)

It was a very laid back conversation. Once the skills were established, the rest of the interviewed consisted of making sure I was a fit with the team. Personality is an important part of working at Overstock.com.

Interviewed Jan 2011 (took a day)

Had a phone screen. I thought things went well. I felt like I answered all their technical questions well. Perhaps the problem was that I was looking for a director level position and they were interviewing me for an individual contributor position. Just a little bit of a mismatch :)

A similar thing happened a couple years ago with the same company.

Folks were nice, but in both cases I didn't even get a phone call saying I was done or the like. I even sent an email a month or so after the phone screen and they didn't respond.
