Software Engineer Interview Experience - London, England
Process
He was a self-taught software engineer and was supposed to do a pair programming session. But the guy was talking a lot and programming alone. I felt that he learned that part of the code and was saying it to everyone. He couldn't ask me a clear question at all; it was like he was trying to teach me all this code. 😄 Anyways, maybe it was luck.
