Process
I applied online and was then reached out to by a recruiter.
We set up a phone call, and after that, we set up a technical phone screen.
The phone screen was pretty much what I expected: Object-Oriented Design (OOD) and algorithms/data structures.
I passed the phone screen and heard back the next day that I would be moving to the onsite interview.
The onsite was a great experience. Everyone was nice and collaborative.
I heard back two business days after the onsite. The onsite was exactly what I expected it to be; the recruiter should walk you through it.
I didn't end up getting an offer, but I had a great experience and will apply again in the future.
Questions
Standard algorithms and data structures, with more emphasis on design.
