Software Development Engineer Interview Experience - United States
Process
I had the worst experience. I received an email from a recruiter to set up a 20-minute call. However, it turned out to be a hiring manager round, where they asked me rapid-fire questions I might have studied way back in my undergraduate studies. It is not good to trick candidates like this. If it is a hiring manager round, please be specific in the confirmation email sent to candidates so that they can be better prepared. Worst experience ever!
