Software Engineer Interview Experience

Process

I had a technical phone interview with an engineer who gave me a coding question relevant to the position ("based on this class x, how would you do xyz?"). We used CoderPad to screen share the code I wrote.

I was asked about the runtime complexity of my code, which I unfortunately couldn't answer.

The engineer was very kind and helped me whenever I got stuck. Overall, a positive experience.
