Software Engineer Interview Experience - New York, New York
Process
Coursera had a stall in Purdue University Career Fair. I admire Coursera very much as a company; hence, I was extremely excited about it. They sent a HackerRank coding challenge which was very trivial. I did not hear from any recruiter after that. No response even after pressing them repeatedly for many days. Extremely biased towards students from Stanford, Berkeley.
