Software Engineer Interview Experience - Palo Alto, California

October 1, 2015
Positive ExperienceNo Offer

Process

The phone interview organization was not very good. The interviewer for one phone interview was absent, which wasted one afternoon. The onsite organization was really good.

All questions were ordinary. It seems they cared more about the communication between you and the interviewer, and that is probably the reason I got rejected.

Feedback was really fast, received three days after the interview.

Questions

Basic algorithm questions were asked, with no hard or surprising ones. For example, merge two ordered lists.

They also asked about the projects you did, and for details about the one you think you learned the most from.
