Software Engineering Interview Experience - San Diego, California
Process
I applied online on the AT&T website in late October.
In the middle of November, I received an email from a recruiter to schedule a phone screening interview. This interview was just behavioral, so we mostly talked about my resume, personality, why I got into computer science, etc.
Then, they discussed the positions that I would be interested in, so she got me in contact with another recruiter at the specific location/position.
The second recruiter contacted me for a phone interview and also asked me some more behavioral questions. From there, they decided to put my resume forward for some hiring managers who would be interested.
It took a couple of weeks before I heard that a hiring manager was interested. We set up a Skype group call (since I could not make an in-person interview), and this group asked a mix of behavioral, personality, and basic technical questions.
The Skype group call was about a month ago, and as of now, I have not heard back from them.
