Software Engineer Interview Experience

Process

This was a really disappointing experience.

I interviewed after successfully completing one of their coding competitions, yet I didn't get past the technical interview.

It seemed strange that I was required to take a simple coding challenge even though I had performed well in the competition.

I felt I did a good job in the interview, in any case, yet was dropped.

I got the feeling they were interviewing because they had promised interviews to winners of the competition, but didn't really want to put in the effort to follow through on that promise.

It felt like a bait and switch and a waste of everyone's time.

This rather tarnished my opinion of the company.
