Software Engineer Interview Experience - Sydney, Australia

Process

5+ hour interview with multiple rounds of coding tests, on topics such as binary trees. Overall very difficult and felt unfair at times, especially considering that the questions got progressively more difficult even though we were exhausted by the end of the day. Some of the questions felt like "tricks" where the answer was actually much easier than expected.
