Software Engineer Interview Experience

Process

I had two interviews, each a week apart and lasting 45 minutes.

Both interviewers were super nice and helpful.

I didn't get the question about runtime complexity correct in the first interview, but I was still called back for the second.

In the second interview, I wasn't able to finish the coding problem. The interviewer had me email her my code when I finished it.

I received an email six days later stating that I did not get the job.

Overall, it was a fairly positive experience, though.
