Process

I met with some recruiters at a career fair at my university.

About a week later, I was contacted for a phone interview.

He asked me basic questions about data structures, which I was able to answer. I was then asked one coding question. It wasn't hard, but I was flustered because it was my first interview and I took too long to answer it.

The interviewer was rude and talked down to me throughout the entire process.
