Software Engineer Interview Experience - Irvine, California

Negative ExperienceNo Offer
Process
The recruiter was great. However, during the phone interview with an engineer, they asked questions that weren't really part of the job description.
Additionally, while I was trying to talk to them, the phone call would drop about every five minutes. It was by far one of the worst phone interview experiences.
