Software Engineer Interview Experience

Process

Had two phone interviews, with the supposed-to-be five but turned-out-to-be seven rounds of onsite interviews. Three of these rounds were system architecture and design related.

I found those a bit hard as compared to the coding and algorithmic questions.

Overall experience was average.

Post-lunch interviewers were less experienced, I'm assuming. One of them yawned non-stop, and a couple of others seemed to have taken a vow not to speak during the interviews.
