Software Engineer Interview Experience

Process

This was a phone interview. There were no questions about my resume or basic Java knowledge. The interviewer only introduced himself and what they are working on. Then he gave a technical question to write a simulation for a lowest unique bid auction. I didn't finish it with bug-free code in 30 minutes, so I failed.
