Java/J2EE Software Engineer Interview Experience - New York, New York
Process
The interview process is very fast for me. After my resume submission, I quickly received an OA test. The test consists of 3 Java coding problems, and after I finished, I was quickly put in a Super Day interview in the following week. The Super Day was long if you pass the first 4 rounds in the morning. I was "lucky" to have another 5 rounds interview in the afternoon with all recruiting managers. Everyone was very friendly and made the process a lot easier. Will update the result, but overall, the interview is a very positive experience.
