Software Engineer (Recent Graduate) Interview Experience
Process
Had a 15-minute phone interview with a recruiter. Then got a coding challenge. Ended with a 3-hour final interview.
There were 2 45-minute interviews where they asked some technical, behavioral, and coding questions. Then a final 30-minute interview with the director of Engineering.
Everybody was super nice in the process, and it was really easygoing as they quickly replied to questions and scheduled interviews.
