Software Developer Interview Experience - San Jose, California

February 1, 2014
Positive ExperienceGot Offer

Process

After the career fair at school, the recruiter emailed me saying there is a team interested in interviewing me. A few days later, the first phone interview was scheduled with the team's manager.

After the recruiter told me the manager had positive feedback about me, I was scheduled for a second interview with one of the developers on the team. A week later, I got an unofficial acceptance. It took one to two weeks after that to receive the official offer letter.
