Software Engineer Interview Experience - Atlanta, Georgia
Process
Met with a recruiter through a career fair and was soon invited to an on-campus interview.
It was a 30-minute, technical interview. There were a few CV-related questions at the beginning, and then I had to code one problem on the whiteboard.
After this interview, they told me I qualified for the second round (on-site, Seattle), but they had no spots until January. Unfortunately, I could not wait that long and accepted another offer.
