Software Engineer (Internship) Interview Experience - Croton-on-Hudson, New York
Process
The interview took an hour to complete, and I was very tired at the end.
There were two interviewers, and we spoke through HireVue. They were friendly but not very helpful.
I had:
- 3 coding questions
- A few behavioral questions
- Approximately 2 technical questions
The questions were not difficult. One was about binary trees, but it was not a hard level. The others were also easy but tricky.
PS: Be sure to always speak to show your thought process.
