Houston, TXPosted Mar 2025 · Candidate report, summarized by Dataford

I interviewed for a SAIC Software Engineer role using an open-ended project walkthrough, and it felt average difficulty because it depended on broad recall under pressure.

Open-ended full-stack design Q&A — I was asked to explain how I’d build a full-stack project end-to-end for a junior role; I covered most of the flow but got stuck recalling how to connect the frontend to the backend, specifically things like Axios and CORS. Outcome: No offer, and the takeaway was that knowing the full-stack “plumbing” details (not just high-level steps) can decide the outcome.
