Process
The process included:
- 3 automated online assessments
- 1 30-minute face-to-face interview on Chime to go over solutions and ask questions.
It was pretty quick and easy, but lacked a personal touch from a recruiter (unlike at Google).
Questions
Don't remember what the coding questions were, but the behavioral OA contains multiple-choice questions where the answer they "want" is fairly obvious.
