Software Engineer New Grad Interview Experience - Austin, Texas
Process
I applied online.
Got OA and included 2 large coding questions and then some brain games then some coding trivia revolving around coding knowledge and data structures. Sort of difficult and did not make it past this round.
Questions
They asked about some system design coding question and the Zap-N test, which comprises a series of mini-games designed to evaluate cognitive abilities such as memory, multitasking, and decision-making.
