Software Engineer Interview Experience

Process

A long and drawn-out interview process.

It began with an online technical interview. Next was a one-hour technical interview, then two one-hour back-to-back technical interviews. I scored perfectly on all four technical interviews.

Next were three back-to-back behavioral interviews. I did okay with these, but felt that the behavioral questions seemed to be assessing one's communication skills in a personal setting rather than a technical one.

I then received a letter from HR indicating that I would have to wait a couple of weeks for the next step in the process. At this point, I had multiple offers from top companies with deadlines approaching.

There was no way I was going to continue this long, drawn-out process with Two Sigma and miss out on other great opportunities. Their process is too drawn out, and I suspect they lose some great candidates.
