Software QA Engineer Interview Experience - San Jose, California
Process
I applied for the position in the videoconferencing business unit, following the recommendation of a family friend.
The only interview was an on-site 1:1 with my then-future manager.
I was fresh out of school, so she didn't ask much, only basic questions about my skills.
I received the offer by phone a few days later.
Questions
She asked how much experience I had with scripting languages.
