      Software Engineer II Interview

      17 Oct 2022
      Anonymous interview candidate
      Irvine, CA
      No offer
      Positive experience
      Difficult interview

      Application

      I applied online. The process took 2 weeks. I interviewed at Acorns (Irvine, CA) in Sept 2022

      Interview

      I did not get an offer, but this is the only company I have ever interviewed at where the recruiter actually called me to deliver the news and give me feedback. They were also very responsive and timely in getting my interviews set up. My interviewers were all pretty good for the most part, they were engaged and gave helpful hints when I got stuck. I found the LC Mediums fairly difficult, and was unable to get an optimal solution for most of them. The only negative part of my interview experience was that I thought my interviewer for the system design question wanted to go too much into certain details, and we were unable to go over as much of the design as I would have liked.

      Interview questions [1]

      Question 1

      Leetcode-style questions, usually one easy and one medium in each coding interview. Open-ended system design question.
