Software Development Engineer Interview Experience
Process
Talked and submitted my resume at a campus recruitment event, and I received an interview invitation a few days later.
I had a one-on-one on-campus interview where I was asked a few questions about C# and given a coding problem. I didn't answer very well and was declined after the interview.
