Software Engineer New Grad Interview Experience

Process

I got an OA first, and then an interview call. The question was a backtracking LeetCode problem. I would say it was a medium-hard question. I was able to solve it, but I still got rejected. I was hoping for a second on-site round. I don't know why, but I think my interviewer was not interested in my code, as she was not even correcting me.
