Software Engineer Interview Experience - San Francisco, California
Process
I met an engineering manager through AngelList and was quickly scheduled for a technical phone screen.
The interviewer's coding question wasn't too difficult, but he was very good at pushing you and assessing your ability to communicate.
The onsite interview was pretty standard:
- Two whiteboard interviews
- One live coding interview
- An architecture design interview
Each interview was with two engineers, which could have been intimidating, but everyone was pleasant and accommodating.
The Uber ride to and from the office is a nice touch, as well.
