Process
Two phone call interviews.
The first one was more about your background and had a few technical questions. It went well.
The second one was all technical questions. The interviewer rescheduled and was late. He did not have much time, as he was interviewing me between two meetings, and spent less than 20 minutes. He also had trouble with his phone, and I could hardly hear him.
