Process
Best interviewing process ever.
One screening call with a recruiter, followed by two technical phone interviews. This culminates in an on-site interview featuring six interviewing sessions.
The on-site interview includes:
- Two coding exercises
- An architectural design process
In the end, I really appreciated how friendly and genuine everyone was.
