Software Engineer Interview Experience

Process

HR contacted me one week after submitting my resume. The initial screen was with HR for 30 minutes and only lasted for 5-10 minutes. It included a resume review and one technical question, which took me by surprise, as I've never had an HR person ask technical questions. I received a rejection email two weeks after the screening.
