Process

Round 1: BQ4 Round 2: Code1 (Discussion) Round 3: BQ2 + Code2

In Round 1, I was asked common questions, such as how I handle tasks outside my responsibilities and how I deal with negative feedback.

Round 2 seemed like a "bar raiser." I was asked about a variation of a data structure, specifically involving a hierarchical architecture.

Round 3 was friendly. It included common BQ questions and easy/medium code questions.
