Software Engineer (Internship) Interview Experience - Singapore
Process
Resume screening, 1 behavioral round, and 1 technical round.
The behavioral round was a bit weird for an internship, given that candidates probably don't have much experience.
The technical round had 1 medium-ish question.
It took quite long to get notified by the recruiter of the result.
Questions
Some behavioral questions and a string algorithm question
