Software Engineer Interview Experience

Positive ExperienceNo Offer

Process

Two people interviewed me. One was a little more prepared than the other, who arrived 15 minutes late.

I believe the reason I didn't get the offer was because I could not solve the question, which I probably should have been able to, even without those 15 minutes.
