Guidewire Software Software Engineer Interview Experience: Onsite scheduling broke down

After a recruiter call, I took an online assessment with two LeetCode-style questions, one easy and one medium. They felt straightforward. I then spoke with an engineering manager and, near the end, solved a simple coding problem and wrote tests. The feedback was immediately positive, and the manager said they wanted to see me onsite.

The onsite scheduling was where it fell apart. I contacted the recruiter to set it up, but the recruiter missed the call. We rescheduled, and they missed it again. I was honestly confused because the earlier round had seemed to be moving forward.

Up through the manager stage, it was a decent technical experience. The process then stalled because of the no-shows. I ended without an offer, and it felt as though good interview performance stopped mattering once coordination broke down.

Location: San Jose, CA. Overall feedback: negative. Offer status: no offer.
