Software Engineer Interview Experience

Process

The overall process was really great. All interviewers I talked with were patient and supportive.

I was also impressed by the final Q&A session of each interview. Interviewers described detailed requirements and job functions specific to this position, as well as their opinions towards the tech and non-tech aspects of the company.

Interviewers in SG are all fluent in English. Some interviewers in Beijing speak both English and Mandarin. One interviewer asked me if I was okay with Mandarin before the chat and said we could reschedule if not.

I really enjoyed all the conversations I had, although I didn't get the offer.

Questions

Medium coding questions in most of the sessions. Some design questions, including system design. Random chat.
