Software Engineer Interview Experience - Austin, Texas
Process
I interviewed through my university.
There were two interviews total.
The first interview included some basic questions about Java, bitwise comparisons, and a little behavioral stuff.
The second interview was mostly technical and asked more basic programming questions.
