Process
Difficult, "hard" LeetCode-style questions, some considered "master" level.
Also, some behavioral questions and general design.
For someone with 5+ years of experience answering algorithm questions, the interview would be doable. However, for a newer software engineer with less experience or a recent graduate, in my opinion, the coding portion would still perhaps be a poor measure of skill.
