Software Engineer Interview Experience - Mountain View, California
Process
Screening tech interview. This was a standard panel round.
In the last round, the question was not clear despite my attempts to clarify. I'm unsure if this was intentional or just bad luck.
I would recommend that any interviewees focus on edge cases and providing clear thoughts.
