Software Engineer Interview Experience - San Francisco, California
Process
Interview Process:
- Recruiter Call
- Hiring Manager Call
- System Design Interview
- Coding Interview
The interviews themselves were great — the hiring manager and technical interviewers were friendly and professional. However, the recruiting process was frustrating. After being told things would move slowly, I was suddenly pressured to schedule interviews within days, despite having communicated prior personal commitments.
Once the interviews were done, I was completely ghosted. No feedback, no updates — just silence. Very unprofessional behavior from the recruiting team.
Questions
The hiring manager extensively discussed my resume.
