Software Engineer New Grad Interview Experience - Atlanta, Georgia
Process
The interview process included an initial technical screening and two pair-programming interviews conducted over the phone.
The initial screening involved two questions. Both were straightforward, with the second being the most involved but still manageable.
The two phone interviews were relatively difficult but reasonable. I was able to reach solutions for both, although during the second interview, I felt very nervous and did not articulate my thought process well.
