Software Development Engineer Interview Experience
Process
It was easy, given that the position was for entry-level undergrads. There were few design questions, some simple algorithms, and a few test cases.
There were three technical interviews, followed by a technical cum HR interview with the hiring manager.
All interviewers were really helpful.
Each round lasted fifteen to twenty minutes, and the round with the hiring manager was for half an hour.
