Software Engineer Interview Experience - San Jose, California
Process
The interview process was fine. It included a Codility Online Assessment and two rounds of virtual interviews.
As a new grad, I was asked system design and general CS questions. I was surprised that there were no LeetCode questions.
Overall, the interviews were easy, and I felt that I performed well on both. Unfortunately, I was ghosted by PANW after the interview rounds, which was extremely unprofessional.
