Software Engineer Interview Experience - New York, New York
Process
- OA
- Phone screen (1 round)
- Onsite (4 rounds)
The phone screen involved basic technical questions, similar to LeetCode easy-medium problems.
The onsite interviews were all technical, focusing on LeetCode medium problems. I had a negative experience in the final round interviews. Each interviewer seemed disconnected and spoke very little, if at all. You technically received no feedback until you finished solving the question, which was a significant departure from other interview processes I've encountered. It felt as though the interviewers were not engaged.
