Software Engineer New Grad Interview Experience - United States

Process

Overall, a positive interview process. I applied online, had a pretty standard coding challenge, one phone interview, and a 4-5 hour onsite interview.

It took them three weeks to respond after the on-site interview, but to be fair, it was during the holiday season. They emailed to schedule a call, which turned out to be a rejection.

I expected the rejection, but ambiguous emails about wanting a call can be a bit hurtful and prolong the feeling. I appreciate them taking the time to call and provide feedback, but yeah. Just email the rejection first so we can both move forward with other opportunities.
