      Software Engineer Interview

      Anonymous employee
      Accepted offer
      Positive experience
      Average interview

      Application

      I applied online. The process took 4 weeks. I interviewed at GitHub

      Interview

      Took an 20 min introductory phone call, did an online coding test, and then a skype code test. The interview process was really great. The recruiter and all the employees I spoke to were kind and did not make the interview process that intimidating. It was a good way to get an introduction the company, get a feel for the employees, understand what kind of things I was expected to know.

      Average interview

      Application

      I interviewed at GitHub

      Interview

      There were a total of four interview rounds: a recruiter screening, a hiring manager interview, and a loop consisting of system design and coding rounds. The interviews went very well, and after each round, the interviewers seemed highly impressed and mentioned that I would hear back from the recruiter soon. However, I was ultimately rejected because the decision came down to a very close comparison between me and another candidate. Additionally, the recruiter was not very helpful throughout the process, which made the experience more frustrating.
