May 9, 2018 Leave a Comment

I recently completed a loop of interviews for a software engineering manager position. Below is a collection of 100+ mostly management and behavioral questions I was asked on phone screens and by panels during onsite interviews for engineering management positions at a variety of big-name and top-tier tech companies in the San Francisco Bay Area such as Google, Facebook, Amazon, Twitter, LinkedIn, Uber, Lyft, Airbnb, Pinterest, Salesforce, Intuit, Autodesk, et al. No one asked all these.
