Software Engineer Interview Experience - Santa Clara, California
Process
I applied online, and a recruiter reached out to me to work on an online challenge.
After that, I went through a quick phone call with the recruiter, followed by a technical phone interview with an engineer.
Finally, I went onsite to SoundHound HQ in Santa Clara, CA for my final rounds of interviews with the CTO, the manager of the team that I applied to, a software architect, and a software engineer. The whole day in the office was very well organized, and everyone I met was super friendly and incredible.
The whole process ran extremely smoothly, and communication with my recruiter was very efficient.
