Software Engineer Interview Experience

Process

I received an internal referral through a former intern. After I got in contact with the university recruiter, it was several weeks and many unresponsive emails before I scheduled my first technical interview.

Facebook conducts two 45-minute CoderPad interviews with execution disabled. My interviewer wasn't very engaged, and the recruiting team there seems to be too busy.
