Process

The process began with a resume review, followed by coding questions. I was asked about C memory concepts and then presented with two algorithmic questions involving trees. Multiple programming languages were permitted, and the coding platform included a debugging tool. The experience was pleasant.

Cons: At least when I was there (Summer 2018), the learning curve was steep. Many of the presentations meant for new hires were too in-depth and specific to certain topics and need to be changed to be more big-picture.
