Principal Software Engineer Interview Experience - United States
Process
Applied online.
After HR screening, a technical round was scheduled within weeks. The technical round was a HackerRank-style interview with preset code and test cases. I did not do a great job at the programming exercise, resulting in no offer.
Questions
A preset coding exercise with test cases to parse a bunch of string operations and pattern matching. This is a type of exercise with lots of embedded use cases.
