Senior Software Engineer Interview Experience - San Francisco, California

June 1, 2026
Negative ExperienceNo Offer

Process

The interview process followed a standard format: an initial recruiter phone screen followed by a technical interview with an engineer. The interview itself was straightforward, and I felt that my performance was strong. However, I received a rejection email a few days later.

One aspect that stood out was that the interviewer did not seem particularly engaged, and the conversation felt more like a one-sided assessment than an interactive discussion. As a result, the overall experience felt less collaborative than I had expected.
