Software Engineer Interview Experience

Process

I spoke with a recruiter for 30 minutes about my past job experience.

A week or two later, I had a 60-minute technical phone screening with an engineer at the company.

It was a pretty standard shared code environment.

I didn't make it farther.

Questions

I was asked a variation of the "Design A File System" question on LeetCode. I thought the interviewer was really good. He started out with a very simple version of the problem and built it up as we went.

I made a simple mistake, and the interviewer pointed it out.

Was this helpful?
