Positive ExperienceNo Offer

Process

I asked my professor for a recommendation.

Several days later, I got a call from HR asking me some non-technical questions, like when I would graduate – pretty easy.

After that, she sent me an email about the direct onsite interview with three interviewees, each for half an hour, and made the schedule.

Questions

First, a question about data structures and algorithms.

Second, I was shown some code and asked to point out potential bugs.

Third, a Principal QA asked questions about networking, like 3-way handshaking and DNS. They also asked me to write a function on a whiteboard and corrected my code.
