Micro1 Software Engineer interview experience: AI-guided questions

I began with an assessment, then completed a fully AI-guided interview. The virtual interviewer asked about my programming experience, software engineering fundamentals, and earlier projects. No live person spoke with me.

The format was direct. The bot parsed what I said and used that to choose the next question, either confirming my understanding or asking for more detail. That made it feel less robotic than other automated interviews I have had, and the questions themselves seemed reasonable.

I did not receive an offer, but the process did not feel broken. It was an efficient baseline screen, though I still wanted more human context because the result depended on how well the AI interpreted my wording.

Location: San Francisco, CA. Overall feedback: Positive. Offer status: No offer.
