Software Engineer Interview Experience

Process

Phone interview.

I had to solve a coding question. The question was of average difficulty.

Despite knowing how to solve it and explaining my algorithm, the interviewer didn't seem interested at all. I started coding and explained every step I took. I could tell that my interviewer wasn't even listening to me, as when I asked questions, I either received no response or a "What do you need?" if I waited a few seconds.

Overall, a very negative experience.
