Software Engineer Interview Experience

Process

I applied online.

Phone screen went very well. I passed to the onsites, and they gave me the problem statement, and I proposed a sub-optimal solution. They told me to come up with a more optimal solution and didn't give me much time to think about it. They got impatient and gave me a hint. I figured it out and solved the problem, but apparently they thought I needed hints, which I didn't ask for.
