Application Software Engineer Interview Experience - Redmond, Washington

Positive ExperienceNo Offer
Process
I applied online.
Had a phone screen where they asked me rapid-fire CS fundamentals. Overall, it went very well, and the recruiter just wants to know if you are a good fit. Next round is a 1-on-1 Codility technical and then an onsite with 4 rounds.
