Software Engineer Interview Experience

Process

It took a really long time. I went through four rounds of interviews. At last, they said they were prepared to give me an offer; however, they needed one more round of interviews. The very last interview also went smoothly. I completed every question during the interview. The interviewer also gave positive feedback. But after two days of waiting, they stopped my process. I really didn't get why this happened. If my performance had been bad, I would have felt better. But I solved every question they gave. It was a little bit unfair. I couldn't recall anything I did wrong. I really want to know why. Also, they said I need to wait 12 months to reapply.

Questions

Some questions deal with arrays, recursion, and efficiency.
