SWE New Grad Interview Experience - United States
February 26, 2023
Neutral ExperienceNo Offer
Process
The technical round was not challenging. However, when it came to the last round, I met a distant and uninterested hiring manager. He caught me off guard with many personal questions. During the other two technical rounds, the people were friendly and nice.
