Software Engineer Intern Interview Experience - New York, New York
Process
The hiring process was very fluid. I applied online and was contacted by a recruiter to set up a phone interview.
The first interview consisted of standard algorithms questions and a creative pricing question. I passed the first round and was set up with a second phone interview. This one was less broad than the first, but the difficulty was greater.
Overall, it was a good experience. The recruiters were friendly and prompt in following up after my interviews. I am very happy with the process.
