Software Engineer Interview Experience - Menlo Park, California
Process
A recruiter contacted me over Piazza and scheduled a technical interview two weeks later. I used Glassdoor and LeetCode to prepare.
An engineer called me, introduced himself, and asked me to solve a coding problem in the language of my choice on a shared document we both could access. I did adequately on the first problem and then poorly on the second.
The engineer was nice but hard to understand, and the whole process was very impersonal.
Questions
One LeetCode medium and one LeetCode hard.
