Interview Details – I applied through my university recruiting website. After a basic, very short interview at my school, I was asked to interview at headquarters. I met with four employees, one of which was a recent grad. Only one interviewer asked challenging questions. The entire process was lengthy but fairly straightforward. Many of my peers and I were never contacted with either an offer or denial.

Interview Question – These questions were specific to projects I had completed in school.   Answer Question

New Grad Software Engineer at comScore

No Offer – Interviewed in Chicago, IL Dec 2012 – Reviewed Feb 20, 2013

Interview Details – At first a HR in comscore told me that I will get a phone interview and then go to Virginia headquarters for onsite if I pass the phone interview. But at last I get a final interview just in their Chicago Office in Willis Tower.

4 people one by one came to interview me, one of them is a newly grad student just joined them. The last is a senior manager. They are all very friendly.

The questions are about my resume project, they asked me to illustrate one of my project in my resume. They the have white paper to you to write some code.

You will use knowledge of trees, recursion, etc, very normal data structure and algorithm questions. One of them asked me to design a class, not very hard. But I didn't figure out some answers asked by the last person, it's not about programming but math.

Interview Question – to design a many nodes tree instead of normal binary tree, I didn't figure out. And some math problem which were not very hard, but I didn't figure out either.   Answer Question

No Offer – Interviewed in South San Francisco, CA Jun 2012 – Reviewed Jul 19, 2012

Interview Details – The interview process was relatively straightforward...I received a call approximately three weeks after I submitted the application from one of the recruiting staff in VA, who set up a phone interview with one of the managers at the South SF office. It was a nice, relaxed interview and the manager was very nice.

Afterwards, I was scheduled for a three hour on-site interview with four members of the group. It was a pleasant experience and most of the questions were about work on my resume. Not much skill-based assessment.

Interview Question – Why do you want to work for this company?   Answer Question

No Offer – Interviewed in Reston, VA Dec 2011 – Reviewed Mar 6, 2012

Interview Details – Absolutely bizarre. I spoke with five people and still have no idea what this company does or what my job would have been. Nobody seemed to have any passion for their jobs. Lots of strange IT types lumped into the awkward interview and lunch with a senior manager. Reston is a bland corner of suburban Washington. I'd say more, but I'm just confused.

Interview Question – Don't remember any   Answer Question
