Software Engineer Interview Experience - San Jose, California

May 1, 2015
Positive ExperienceNo Offer

Process

The recruiter invited me onsite directly for a recruiting event. There was no phone screen. I met with six to seven interviewers. The most impressive aspect was the seamless coordination of the process. The recruiters made sure I had bathroom and water breaks between sessions. As a candidate, I felt well taken care of. The hiring managers and engineers were also very well prepared and passionate about their work. It was a great experience for me, although I did not receive an offer in the end.

Questions

Coding questions, design questions. Not many behavioral questions. All the coding questions are not algorithmically challenging, but they are not easy to write bug-free.
