Software Engineer New Grad Interview

Oct 21, 2016

Anonymous Interview Candidate

No offer

Positive experience

Difficult interview

Application

I applied through a recruiter. The process took 2 months. I interviewed at Google (Menlo Park, CA) in Jan 2016

Interview

Recruiter found me through LinkedIn and we set a time to chat over the phone. She was super nice and told me about the next steps. She gave me a week to complete an online assessment of two coding questions plus a personality quiz. From there we moved to schedule a phone screen interview with an engineer. I wasn't prepared when I interviewed due to school, so I wasn't surprised I did not move forward.
