Software Engineering Interview Experience

Process

I met the recruiter at a career fair, dropped off my resume, and was contacted for an on-campus tech interview.

I interviewed with a Russian individual who had a heavy accent, making it difficult to understand him.

He also became impatient and essentially wrote the answer on the board after only one to two minutes of observing me struggle. This was not a very helpful or nurturing interview experience.
