Software Engineer Interview Experience

Process

The interview process consisted of three rounds: coding, algorithm, and system design.

During the coding round, the interviewer even turned off their microphone. This was embarrassing as I was the only one speaking.

The interviewer for the algorithm round was also unconcerned. After I presented one solution and wanted to optimize it, but had no further ideas, the interviewer simply continued with their own work without communicating with me.

This was a very terrible interview experience :(

Questions

  1. Finish an easy but very long coding question, like OOD.
  2. System design: task scheduler.
  3. Algorithm: using a priority queue.
