Software Engineer Interview Experience - New York, New York

January 1, 2016
Negative ExperienceNo Offer

Process

I was interviewed on campus during the college career fair.

I submitted my resume at the fair, and only a few students were selected based on a GPA cutoff.

We then had an interview the next day.

The process was not organized nor student-friendly. The interviewer was not very interested, and the questions asked were too open-ended. When I asked for clarification, nothing was provided, and I had to design everything from scratch.

Questions

Design a community using OOP concepts.

Few questions on Java internals.
