The interviewer asked me only one coding question in the phone interview for a SWE positon. Since it is expected to have 2 questions in FB phone screen but I only got one, does it mean I was too slow and I can expect a reject?

  • I only ask one question. No one has ever fully finished it 100% with time to spare. I wouldn’t worry about it.

      Interesting. I guess that’s just the experience I’ve had.

      Although I did have a bizarre interview with an experienced dude at Microsoft like that...it was weird...so varies I guess

    • Ohh yea. If they brain freeze I use another question. It’s not a big deal if someone draws a blank and can otherwise solve another question. Just waste time having to explain two questions instead of one but there’s no way around it.

  • I don’t understand all these posts about trying to figure out if they passed or failed a screening or interview. You’ll be told. There is literally nothing you can do at his point to change a “no” into a “yes” at this point. So just wait and see...

  • Well depends. Did you answer the question correctly? How long did it take you? What was the question?
