Software Engineer (Internship) Interview Experience - Amsterdam, Netherlands
Process
There is an initial 2-step phase.
The first step consists of two LeetCode-style/OOP programming questions (hard). The second step involves multiple minigames that test decision-making and other factors not clear to me.
Then, there are four interviews:
- HR interview
- Three technical interviews (IT fundamentals, System Design, Coding)
I performed poorly in System Design and was rejected.
