Software Engineer Interview Experience

Process

The interview process was very well-structured.

I applied, and two weeks later, I received an email from the recruiter about a Project Questionnaire form to fill out.

After that, I was given a one-month window to schedule two technical interviews over the phone, each lasting 45 minutes.

The technical interviewers went straight into a data structures and algorithms question and did not ask anything about my previous experiences.

Each interview consisted of only one question.
