Software Engineering Interview Experience - New York, New York
Process
I was contacted initially by the college recruiter.
We set up a time for a quick 30-minute behavioral screen.
What followed was a phone coding interview.
If that had gone well, there would have been an onsite.
Questions
I had a lot of questions about database choices.
I knew what NoSQL was and what MongoDB was.
I was eliminated after a really easy phone interview question. This was one of my first interviews, and I did not know what I was doing.
Was this helpful?
