Software Engineer Interview Experience

Process

The process was surprisingly long and demanding, with more interviews than many FAANG companies.

The recruiter was friendly and responsive at first, but the overall experience left a lot to be desired.

During the technical interview, the interviewer provided no guidance or engagement. After dropping the problem, he remained silent. When I asked clarifying questions, he either couldn't or wouldn't answer. When I asked if he preferred me to talk through my thinking, he showed no interest.

This made it difficult to demonstrate problem-solving effectively, which I thought was the whole point.

While the recruiter and first interviewer were initially polite, the professionalism didn’t carry through. I followed up afterward and never heard back. Disappointing, especially after investing significant time.
