Process
I applied through a recruiter. The process took 5 days.
The interviewer was very nice and easy to communicate with. He had a great attitude throughout the interview. He asked me briefly about my background, then left plenty of time for the live coding. After that, he asked a few simple, basic follow-up questions.
