I applied online. The process took 2 weeks. I interviewed at Autodesk (San Francisco, CA) in Feb 2019
Interview
Interviewed at their SF office. The process felt very informal and unorganized. The team was friendly and didn't seem to have a problem with my lack of experience during the initial phone interviews.
After the rejection, I asked the recruiter for any advice on how to improve but was met with silence.

Other Software Engineer Interview Reviews for Autodesk
Typical software engineer process. First telephone resume screening. and then OA and then Onsite interview. Each step is average difficult. But HR did ask some personal private questions which made me unconfortable.
3 rounds, not that stressful, love the environment. more like to chat. And maybe it would be better to prepare some tech questions, it sould be really helpful. But the tech comes until the second, and third round is more like behavior questions.
I applied through a recruiter. I interviewed at Autodesk in Apr 2026
Interview
I first had a call with the recruiter to discuss the role, my background, and my experience. After that, I was invited to Round 1 with the manager.
The interview was mostly behavioral and focused heavily on teamwork, collaboration, and communication-related topics. Toward the end, there were also a few technical questions covering C++, DSA fundamentals, and other stuff related to the role.
Overall, the process felt professional and respectful. The manager was kind, approachable, and treated me with respect throughout the interview.
