Software Engineer Interview Experience - Seattle, Washington
Process
I was contacted by a recruiter to begin the interviewing process with Tableau. They were very cordial and always happy to answer any questions I had.
After my initial phone screen, we set up a tech screen to be completed over the phone. Both the recruiter and the engineer I spoke with were very approachable and handled the job tactfully.
I was unfortunately not made an offer due to insufficient experience; however, the way in which they handled the decision was very professional. I certainly appreciated the experience as a whole.
