Process
The process was straightforward.
There was an initial 15-minute recruiter call, followed by:
- A 1-hour technical screening
- A 1-hour manager screening
- A final round interview
The final round consisted of a 1-hour technical interview and a 1-hour manager interview.
The interviewers, recruiters, and coordinators were all very friendly and pleasant to speak to. The process was quick, and I received replies within 1-2 days between interview stages. It was definitely a positive experience.
Questions
One of the technical rounds was a classic LeetCode-style question.
