Software Engineer (Internship) Interview Experience

November 7, 2017

Negative ExperienceNo Offer

Process

Emailed you saying they wanted to interview.

If you accept their interview request, they proceed to make you do a 3-hour-long online coding challenge during the busiest time of the semester.

Seriously, this practice needs to stop. It's disrespectful at best.
