Process

The process was straightforward. The recruiter was very nice and responsive.

The recruiter reached out to me via email to schedule a 15-minute interview. This interview was mostly behavioral and get-to-know-me.

The recruiter then scheduled a 1-hour phone interview with an actual software engineer. For this interview, the engineer asked about my experience and projects, then we proceeded to a coding challenge. He invited me to codeshare and code the requirements. Overall, the engineer guided me through the challenge, especially when I had trouble understanding the question.

Finally, a general email from EA came stating that they will move forward with my application.
