Process
It was my first interview ever.
I did my best to prepare for it, learning about the company and reviewing some technical concepts.
The interviewer was a nice guy and asked me some general questions about myself and a technical question about a filter. However, I had not seen a filter before, so I was unable to answer that.
Questions
The most difficult question for me was the filter question, which I was not able to answer.
Also, when the interviewer asked me "What are your weaknesses?" I could have answered better by stating what my weaknesses are, but showing the positive side of that weakness.
