Process
I had a coding assessment followed by a panel interview.
The coding assessment consisted of two HackerRank questions, rated as easy to medium.
Approximately two weeks later, the interview was scheduled.
The interviewer only asked behavioral questions, with no technical ones.

IBM Work Experiences
- 3.0Known Company, But DirectionlessEntry Level Software Engineer • Former EmployeeSan Jose, California, United StatesNovember 21, 2023Pros: Well-known company. Good experience.Cons: The company has no direction. As soon as the next big thing comes out, they will try to shift the whole company to do that one thing. They are always late to the party and competing with companies that actually hire top talent. Layoffs are commonplace, and unless you are working on the current thing, you are at risk.
