Software Engineer Interview Experience - New York, New York
Process
Call with hiring manager covering basics of resume and functional fit.
Three-hour take-home with 4-5 "medium" LeetCode questions done on HackerRanker. All weren't terribly hard, but you did have to find optimal solutions on all to pass the test cases.
Four on-site technical interviews (got sent home after lunch). This included on-site coding on a computer they provided for several interviews. Coding with someone over your shoulder in a weird editor is a tad unnerving.
Questions
- Code a data structure
- Object-oriented problem
- DP problem
