Process
The interview process was really quick. There were 5 technical rounds, 2 one-on-one interviews, and 1 interview was scheduled with the CEO, but it was unfortunately canceled at the last moment.
The technical interviews were really fun. They usually involved LeetCode medium questions, and throughout the interview, it felt like a conversation.
