Software Engineer New Grad Interview Experience

Negative ExperienceNo Offer

Process

The process began with an online assessment. It included one medium and one hard question from the LeetCode DoorDash section. I passed all test cases for the first question, but couldn't pass 4 out of 13 for the second. Despite this, I passed this phase and advanced to the onsite interviews.

The onsite portion consisted of two coding questions and one behavioral interview.

My first interviewer presented a hard question from the LeetCode DoorDash problems. The second interviewer started with an easy problem, then escalated to two hard questions from the same LeetCode DoorDash section for the follow-up.

I had completed all LeetCode DoorDash problems and solved them correctly. I also performed well in the behavioral interview. However, two days later, I was informed they would not be moving forward with my application. It felt like a complete waste of time.
