Software Engineer Interview Experience - Mountain View, California
Process
Going for my first technical interview this Monday!
I applied online a long time ago, more than a few months ago, but less than a year?
Maybe. The first phone call was a basic screening to see if I was a candidate for the process. Then, you set a date and are left to study for that, which I am currently doing.
I will keep this updated.
Questions
Study, study, study.
I'm reading Gayle Laakmann McDowell's "Cracking the Coding Interview" (5th edition) to prep.
