Interview
I applied online. I had a phone interview. I found it very odd that nearly two-thirds of the interview were questions about the year I graduated high school, and what I did in every year up until the year I graduated college. There were no questions concerning my actual degree or college experience. The last third were the basic questions about what I did during my internship and why I was interested in the position. Overall, I can't help but feel that this interview was not conducted well and that the questions about high school were weighed against me somehow.

Submitted resume on Friday. Received a call on the next Monday to schedule a phone interview on that Friday. A list of behavior questions like other SWE interviewees, including where did you go to high school and did you take a break during college.

Interview
Like a previous post points out, the interview is a time-waster. The initial step is a non-technical phone screen. I'm trying not to be mean but the recruiter was really annoying. Although they do inform you that they're reading off a list of questions, it is the questions themselves that I find time-wasting.
Questions like how my high school experience was, why I chose my university and how my GPA changed in high school. I was exhausted by the time I got to the 3rd question.
The funny bit is when they tell you that after discussing with an engineer, they decided not to move on. Discussing what? My high school experience? :)
I advise anyone primarily interested in a tech interview to look elsewhere.

High school, GPA, strengths, weaknesses and all that good bs.
