Software Engineer Intern Interview Experience
Process
I applied online.
The recruiter reaches out with a take-home assessment. The process includes the following steps:
- First round is to design a File System using CLI.
- Second was to discuss with an interviewer.
- Third was a recruiter screening.
- Fourth, I didn't reach here, is another technical interview.
After a lot of time wasting, I got the generic response: "Others may be more suited for the projects we have in mind." When so much time is being sank in for an internship, it is expected that the recruiters do the due diligence and align candidates to projects beforehand!
Questions
