Software Engineer In Test Interview Experience - Mountain View, California
Process
As expected, one recruiter talk, one phone talk, then five on-site interviews.
The process with HR/recruiters is beyond terrible, as my Google friends warned me. There was a lot of confusion, changing recruiters, and missed calls. They didn't really seem to care, but once you get to the engineers, everyone is very friendly, passionate, and smart!
The interviews are just as you expect. I had:
- Two Software Engineer interviews
- Three Software Engineer in Test interviews
Both have coding sections, but one also has testing sections.
Questions
Nothing unexpected.
Study the usual material, code your work, and be confident. You can do it.
