Software Engineer Interview Experience - United States
Process
The interview process began with a phone screen with a recruiter, followed by an assessment with an engineer. The technical question was straightforward data structure material.
The onsite interviews consisted of:
- A LeetCode medium problem
- A behavioral interview
- A system design interview
The final interview featured a LeetCode hard question. I would be shocked if most candidates could solve it within the allotted time without prior exposure. This was not what I expected for a non-senior role, but that's how it goes.
Questions
LeetCode mediums and a LeetCode hard.
