Software Engineer Interview Experience - Cupertino, California
Process
I had a call with the recruiter than a phone interview. The phone interview went well, but it was for a much more operational role while I was looking for a software engineering role. The hiring manager was interested, even after I explained the situation, but I never actually heard back from the recruiter. The interview itself focused on lots of low-level networking questions, more than software engineering.
