Principal Software Engineer Interview Experience - San Francisco, California

December 1, 2018
Positive ExperienceGot Offer

Process

There was an initial call with the recruiter to match the profile and interests, and share it with the right team.

This was followed by a phone interview (an online coding session), and then an onsite interview meeting with about 5-6 interviewers (nice folks).

The overall process was smooth, and the interview questions seemed to be designed per the job requirements.

Questions

These spanned basic OO concepts.

There were a couple of algorithm/data structure coding exercises with intermediate-level difficulty.

There were also some system design/architecture questions around past experiences, which were interesting and probably more relevant to the job.

The interviewers shared further insights on the position as well.
