Process
There were about 5 different interviews back-to-back, each lasting approximately an hour.
The interviewer you get may not understand English well, as they could be from India or China.
Questions
Interview questions were mainly whiteboard-style technical questions. These weren't intended to be functional; they wanted to see how I would solve the problem, all the angles I'd cover, and what conflicts might be caught in my solution.
