Software Engineer Interview Experience - Seattle, Washington
Process
Recruiters and interviewers were nice, helpful, and accommodating.
I didn't make it through the tech screen, which was a one-hour call with a basic coding question. The technical question was through an online coding platform, which allows you to choose any coding language, which was great.
Did not have to use Swift.
