Software Engineer - New Grad Interview Experience - New York, New York
Process
I applied online. The process took 5 days.
After applying, there was an OA to complete. Following the OA, I had a quick 15-minute recruiter call with behavioral questions about my resume and experience. Then, the next round was a 1-hr technical with an engineer with 1 question. I didn't get past this round.
Questions
The technical question was something along the lines of load balancing and implementing very fast solutions for adding to the loads and removing from the loads.
