Software Engineer (Internship) Interview Experience - San Francisco, California
Process
Excluding the OA, I had three rounds with four interviewers.
- The first round was a basic phone screen.
- The second round was a technical interview.
- The third round had two parts: first a technical assessment, then a talk with the hiring manager.
The process took about two weeks, and the recruiters were very helpful and responsive.
Questions
The phone screen consisted of generic behavioral questions. Technical questions involved LeetCode mediums, specifically DFS/BFS graph traversal. In the last behavioral segment, we discussed some of my projects and past experiences.
