Financial Software Developer Interview Experience - Berkeley, California
Process
On-campus interview.
I applied through the career fair and was given an on-campus interview the next day.
The interview was with two people. It was fairly direct and straightforward.
The interview itself lasted about 45 minutes. I assume if you continued, they would have a back-to-back interview afterwards.
