Software Engineer Interview Experience - Menlo Park, California
Process
My process was very long, but this was mainly due to my timeline rather than theirs.
I was referred to a recruiter by a colleague.
Then, I had a phone screen with the recruiter.
Next, I had a phone/whiteboard coding interview/test with an interviewer.
I was then invited to Menlo Park for an onsite interview, which consisted of four 1-hour interviews that mainly focused on coding ability.
Questions
Mainly typical "LeetCode" type questions.
Almost all were very much technically minded.
