Software Engineer Interview Experience

Process

I completed five interviews onsite.

The recruiter was responsive and easy to work with, but the interviews were not as well coordinated.

Apparently, they need to keep track of interview questions to avoid asking the same or similar ones.

The third interviewer had me spend time describing all the previous questions so that he wouldn't ask the same one.

My last interviewer was unfriendly and seemed bored the entire time. He made no effort to look remotely interested or engaged.

Questions
