Entry Level Software Developer Interview Experience - San Jose, California
Process
I applied for an entry-level position at IBM. A few minutes after my application was submitted, I received an email asking me to complete an assessment test. This was done on HackerRank and lasted one hour. They suggested using a language that was requested in the application, so I used Python for the assessment. It was quite simple, with just two questions of easy difficulty. I'm still waiting for a response.
