New Grad Software Engineer Interview Experience - Mountain View, California

Process

I was contacted by HR via email to set up a call. The purpose of the call was to explain the available positions and to set up a phone screen.

The phone screen lasted 45 minutes and was an entirely technical interview. There were two coding questions, which I could answer in a language of my choice. The first question was easy, but the second one was quite complicated. I ran out of time trying to solve the second question.

I had a second similar phone screen two weeks later. A week after that, the recruiter informed me that I did not advance to the onsite interview stage.

Overall, the interview process was smooth. The interviewers were good and understanding, and it was a positive experience.
