Software Engineer Interview Experience - San Francisco, California

January 1, 2024
Positive ExperienceNo Offer

Process

I applied online and received an email from the recruiter the next day. I scheduled a recruiter call. During this call, the recruiter explained the process would be:

  • A 45-minute interview with a hiring manager.
  • A 2-hour take-home assessment through HackerRank.
  • A 4-hour onsite with 30 minutes allotted per problem.

I had my interview with the hiring manager. Although I had an overall positive experience, he told me that they were looking for more senior engineers and that I am on the cusp but not there yet. He said he would be in touch if he found something more suited to my experience.
