Software Engineer Interview Experience - Philadelphia, Pennsylvania
Process
They came to campus for OCR.
I walked into the interview room and introduced myself.
He said "hi," then we jumped straight into coding.
His question was straightforward, and I gave him the optimal solution and coded it up.
I was sure to talk through the problem with him as I approached it, and he told me he liked my implementation.
I'm not sure why I wasn't offered a second round.
