Software Engineer Interview Experience - New York, New York

March 1, 2016
Neutral ExperienceNo Offer

Process

I was initially contacted by the recruiter, who scheduled a 30-minute, non-technical phone call to get to know me. He made me feel very comfortable and got me excited about the role.

Next was a 1-hour technical phone screen interview. The person originally scheduled to interview did not show up, so another engineer interviewed me. He asked about my past experience and then dove straight into the coding portion. No other questions, just coding.
