Senior Software Engineer Interview Experience

Process

I had the opportunity to interview with the CSEO team during one of their interview days. The team was very nice and engaged, and I spoke with four individuals from four different teams under the CSEO's umbrella. Each interview included a coding challenge that dealt with different data structures.

Although I didn't receive an offer, it was a great opportunity to speak with the team. I had a wonderful recruiter helping me through the process (I will say, some recruiters are a hit or miss; hopefully, you get a good, responsive individual!).
