Software Engineer Interview Experience - San Francisco, California
Process
Started off with a conversation with the hiring manager, talking about experience and the like. Next was the tech screen, which is about a card game. It wasn't a LeetCode-style question, and seemed more to be about testing coding speed, with a lot of conditions to code up. The interviewer seemed to be doing something else while I was coding. Overall, a negative experience.
