Software Engineer (Internship) Interview Experience - London, United Kingdom
Process
We had a CodeSignal interview, followed by a virtual automated interview (which I did not like).
The CodeSignal interview was pretty simple. However, the automated interview asked us simple questions that we had to answer within a specific time span. If you messed up, that was it; there was no going back.
