Software Engineer - Full Stack Interview Experience - Mountain View, California
Process
I applied through another source. The process took 3 weeks.
Hiring manager reached out to me on LinkedIn. I had a fairly informal chat with him where I mainly asked him questions about the company. I then had a chat with the recruiter. The next round was a 1-hr tech screen where I had to solve an algorithmic coding problem using topological sort. Final round was a half-day onsite consisting of:
- 2 coding interviews
- 1 system design interview
- 1 behavioral interview with the hiring manager
One of the coding questions involved a bit of math which was tricky, and the other one was more similar to problems I've seen on LeetCode. The behavioral interview was essentially a deep dive into my backstory, starting from late high school. I think he was really trying to understand why I made certain decisions and gauge my cultural fit with the company.
