Software Engineer Interview Experience - West Lafayette, Indiana
Process
I applied through an online application. The process took three weeks.
They asked me to complete coding sample problems, which required me to solve two problems in a limited time. I believe it was one hour, with 30 minutes for each problem.
Then, I had an on-campus interview. It consisted of two rounds, each lasting 45 minutes.
Questions
One of them asked me a question related to 2-sum, and another asked me to solve the sky-line problem. It wasn't too bad, though I struggled so hard.
