Software Engineer Interview Experience

Process

Applied online at my university's career system. Shortly after, I was contacted by a recruiter to schedule a technical interview. First technical Skype interview was done through CoderPad.io; the question was about permutations / combinations. Four days after this interview, I was contacted again by the recruiter to schedule a second technical interview. Second interviewer was very nice. I solved the entire problem that had to do with string manipulation. Contacted a day after by the recruiter saying I did not make it past this round. I don't know why because I thought I did well on the second interview. Oh well.
