      Software Engineer Interview

      Mar 15, 2015
      Anonymous Interview Candidate
      Oakland, CA
      No offer
      Positive experience
      Difficult interview

      Application

      I applied through college or university. The process took 2 weeks. I interviewed at Turnitin (Oakland, CA) in Oct 2014

      Interview

      I applied though a college career website and got an on site interview at school. Had a group interview with a phd student and two Turnitin employees. They were super nice and easy to talk to. Then I got an email asking for an onsite interview where I had three other interviews. Some of them I sat in an office and talked to other employees from different parts of the country. My rejection email basically told me that the team really liked me but I didn't have enough relevant courses.
