Software Engineer Interview Experience - New York, New York
Process
The interview process consists of four rounds. After the first two rounds, an employee takes you to lunch. This lunch does not count as a behavioral question. The questions are all related to algorithms and data structures, and I have never seen similar questions on LeetCode. You must have a deep understanding of algorithms and data structures to pass. Additionally, the interviewers are clever and can quickly follow your thought process.
