Software Engineer (Internship) Interview Experience
Process
First, I had a recruiter phone screening, which included a mix of behavioral and technical questions.
On another day, I had two 45-minute interviews.
These interviews featured LeetCode easy/medium questions. They were not inherently difficult, but the implementation was the challenging part and required a significant amount of time.
