Principal Software Engineer Interview Experience - Pittsburgh, Pennsylvania

September 2, 2026
Negative ExperienceNo Offer

Process

I applied through a recruiter. The process took 2 weeks.

The interview process was poor and unorganized. While the interview was for a managerial position, the hiring manager said that the interview was for many roles. They had no set agenda, no objectives, and the line of questioning was unrelated to the position that was stated.

Questions

They asked about my experience with organizing technical implementations and reducing/consolidating them.
