Software Engineer Interview Experience - San Francisco, California

Process

I applied through a campus recruiting event with an engineer and heard back about two weeks later from a recruiter.

I then had what was supposed to be a general 45-minute technical phone interview. However, my interviewer seemed to only be interested in whether I was a good fit for his project, which I did not know about at the time.

The phone call then became fairly awkward, as he quickly decided that I was not the right person for his team. The total duration of the call was about 25 minutes.

While this one phone call did not go as planned, the recruiters were friendly, and I had positive interactions with them.

Questions

The interviewer asked behavioral questions about my resume and experience, then moved on to two very basic questions about Python and Java.

Was this helpful?
