Process

LOOP superday: two 1-hour long technicals, one 1-hour long behavioral; it was relatively straightforward.

The first question they asked me was a binary tree + dictionary question. I think they were testing system design because they gave a very open-ended question, and wanted you to fill in the blanks.
