Software Engineer Interview Experience - San Antonio, Texas
Process
I was recommended to them by a person from the company where I interned, and a manager from Intel reached out and invited me to interview with them.
I went through a phone screening where they asked about the classes I had taken, what they covered, and the types of projects I've done.
I then went through a round of interviews where they also asked me more about my background, what I was looking for, and asked some programming concept questions. They also gave me an algorithm problem.
Questions
They asked me to write pseudocode for getting a string as input and outputting all possible permutations of the characters in the string.

- 5.0Great Balance, Too Much PoliticsSoftware Engineer • Former EmployeeSan Antonio, Texas, United StatesJanuary 21, 2021Pros: Very good work-life balance.Cons: Too many restructurings, a lot of politics.
- 4.0Great place to work, but bewareSoftware Engineer • Current EmployeeMay 1, 2015Pros: Good work-life balance. Good compensation package. Challenging and engaging projects. Smart people to work with. Three weeks of vacation, then four weeks after 10 years. Four weeks sabbatical after 4 years or eight weeks after 7 years. Good health insurance coverage. Great place to work events. Drinks, snacks, and monthly birthday treats.Cons: Some individuals may have some form of NPD, making them hard to work with. Most people are nice and caring, and great to work with. Sad to say, NPD people, those generally considered as jerks, are the ones getting promoted the fastest. You have to be a jerk to get promoted. The trick is to be nice to individuals, let them know that you are only putting on an acting face in front of management. Be a jerk to them and unnecessarily put them down to expose their flaws and show how you are superior in front of management. It's an act that pays off, but some people get stuck in that rot, and they become like that inside and outside the meeting room. If you don't speak up and let yourself be bullied around, you will end up doing all the work for the NPD people and almost never get appreciated or rewarded.
