Software Engineer (Internship) Interview Experience - Miami, Florida
Process
I applied online for a software engineering internship. The online assessment featured two LeetCode-hard problems to solve within 75 minutes. There was no partial credit; solutions had to be fully correct and optimized. The time pressure was intense, and the questions required strong knowledge of data structures and algorithms. This is clearly designed to filter for top-tier problem solvers.
Questions
One of the questions involved finding the number of valid paths through a grid under specific movement constraints. This required dynamic programming and optimization to pass all test cases.
