Software Engineer Interview Experience - San Francisco, California

Neutral ExperienceNo Offer

Process

I went through the phone interview with the recruiter. Afterward, she sent me the same coding exercise on HackerRank that everyone has received in the past, which is to create a simple DB.

I did the exercise and sent it in but was rejected. I should have followed up afterward to find out what I did wrong, but I didn't.
