Embedded Software Engineer Interview Experience - San Diego, California

Process

After the telephone interview, I was asked for an on-site interview. The on-site interview consisted of seven back-to-back interviews.

All the interviews were in different building locations, which was the biggest challenge.

Some interviewers were late or missing from their offices, so the interview times had to be extended.

I had no breather in between those interviews, as I had to literally run to catch up for the other interviews on time.

Overall, a very bad experience.
