Process
The interview process was well thought out. The people I met were very friendly and supportive. The interview included a written part with 4-5 questions.
Four questions were coding-related, and one question was about transaction propagation levels.
Questions
It was a difficult interview with lots of technical questions, mostly coding and knowledge-based.
No design questions were asked.
To be honest, I do not remember the details now.
