Software Engineer (Internship) Interview Experience - Blacksburg, Virginia
Process
The interview had three parts: a case study, a technical portion, and a behavioral interview.
For the case study, you had to describe the logistics of acquiring a company and the different issues you might run into during the acquisition.
The technical questions were about algorithms. My interviewer wasn't really paying attention to what I was doing or saying, so it felt a little uncomfortable.
The behavioral portion asked questions about different projects you've had and what strategies you used to deal with problems in those projects.
Overall, it wasn't that difficult an interview looking back on it.
