Neutral ExperienceNo Offer

Process

I applied through a job fair and received a call from the manager.

I had an HR round, and then was called onsite for an interview in Arizona.

There were four rounds:

One HR round
Three technical rounds

They asked a lot about C# and ASP.NET, with a little bit about database concepts like normalization.

I also had a lunch interview at The Cheesecake Factory.

Questions

My manager from Oregon asked me to justify my GPA of 3.5. They questioned why 0.5 was missing.

Was this helpful?
