Software Developer Interview Experience - Redmond, Washington
Process
A university recruiter contacted me after a colleague recommended me to their team. For some reason, I was asked to proceed directly to an on-site interview, skipping the phone interview or earlier screening. At Redmond, I had four interviews, one of which was over lunch. The interviews included a mix of coding problems and simple algorithms. They also asked about the topics I was studying.
