Software Engineer Interview Experience

Process

I was reached out to by a recruiter. The recruiter call was pleasant and made me interested in the company.

I moved on to the tech screen. The engineer was nice but otherwise pretty quiet. They didn't ask me a ton of questions, although I constantly spoke out loud about my thinking process, approach, and issues I ran into. They only intervened when necessary.

I'm not sure if I was supposed to solve two problems within an hour or something, but I spent the entire hour solving one problem, which I implemented correctly.

I didn't hear anything back from the recruiter, so I guess I didn't make it. However, it would be nice if they could at least update me. I can't blame my original recruiter as they passed me on to another one. The original recruiter was really nice, but I guess this new one doesn't know how to do their job. Recruiters really do a bad job sometimes and ruin a company's reputation.
