Software Engineer (Internship) Interview Experience - San Diego, California

December 19, 2025
Neutral ExperienceNo Offer

Process

I applied online. The process took four weeks.

  • First, I had a LeetCode OA with mostly medium to hard level questions.
  • Then there were two more rounds that seemed like the standard interview process for a big tech internship.

They didn't care about what year I was in university, and it seems like they hire high school kids even.

Questions

They asked me a 2D matrix question about 0s and 1s and transforming them.
