Process

The hiring process consisted of a phone screen, followed by an on-site interview.

The phone screen was straightforward and was mainly a resume review with some technical questions. No coding was involved.

The on-site interview was four hours long, featuring four interviews back-to-back in the San Francisco office. These interviews were very different from the usual technical interviews, focusing more on skills than memory.

One round was behavioral, one was analytical, and the other two were technical.

Questions
