Software Engineer Interview Experience - New York, New York
Process
The process was pretty standard, with a mix of technical and personal interviews. During the in-person portion, there was a bit of pseudocoding at a computer, but no running of code. I also spoke with the hiring manager about the skills needed for the role.
They twice said they would get back to me with feedback and never did. They ghosted me.
Questions
Pseudocoding was "how would you test this function?"
