Software Development Engineer In Test Interview Experience - San Jose, California
Process
- First call with the recruiter: very quick and informative.
The second was with the staff engineer. He was amazing, made me feel very comfortable while I was coding, and helped me throughout. He was patient and humble.
I was called for an onsite interview. The first person who took my interview was weird, insulting, and on the phone while I was giving answers. They were confusing and totally impolite. The rest of the three interviewers were amazing.
