Software Engineer - New Grad Interview Experience - San Jose, California

June 1, 2022
Negative ExperienceNo Offer

Process

Codesignal OA - Not too hard, 3 medium and 1 easy LeetCode questions.

Recruiter Phone Screening - Good, but I did not know why it took 2 weeks for the recruiter to reply back to me with the next steps, although I sent a follow-up email. At the time, I thought I was ghosted.

Onsite - Interviewers lacked communication, which is against their expectations of a candidate. I tried to ask for clarification of the questions, but they spoke little.

Questions

Medium/Hard LeetCode problems. I solved almost all of them.

However, in one interview, I was lost because I did not really understand the question, while the interviewer was not happy to answer my questions.
