Software Engineer Interview Experience - Columbia, Maryland
Process
It was a long interview – almost taking a whole day.
First, the recruiter let me into the building and ordered lunch for me. Then the group leader had an overall talk, followed by two tech guys who conducted a very detailed tech interview. Talking with the HM was the last step.
