Process

The worst interview experience ever. The interviewer called me several minutes late, which I guess is fine.

There were two interviewers, a lady and a guy. They first started out asking me about my resume, but none of them showed any interest in it.

The lady asked me one question, and then we moved on to an online coding session. The question was a standard one: reverse an integer (e.g., 123 -> 321).

The lady actually thought about using pow().

Then I asked about their work. The guy told me that they are working on some classification methods. I then asked how accurate their method is. The guy thought I was challenging their product and became impatient, saying, "Our product is accurate enough that people will buy it..."
