Software Engineer (Internship) Interview Experience - Seattle, Washington
Process
I spoke to a couple of engineers at the career fair at my university and then heard back a little while later about an on-campus interview.
The on-campus interview was mostly technical, with just a couple of behavioral questions. I had two coding questions.
I solved both of them and answered some questions about runtime and optimization.
I heard back a couple of days later, and they invited me to an on-site interview at their office in Seattle.
I had three 50-minute interviews that were similar to the first round: just basic data structures and algorithms.
They got back to me the next day, saying that I got the job!
