Software Engineer Interview Experience - New York, New York
Process
I went through a referral and was contacted quickly to schedule an HR phone screen.
I had the technical screen shortly after that.
They were unsure about the first screen, so they had me do another, which I guess I did better on, because I was contacted the same day to schedule an onsite.
I already had an offer and am from the East Coast.
Their HR was great about scheduling the onsite for the following week.
The interview itself went super smoothly; it was very organized and very professional.
