Process
The interview consisted of a phone screen, after which I was virtually interviewed as I was from out of town.
It consisted of interviews with three different engineers from the team that would be hiring me, and the last round was with the hiring manager.
The interview was mostly technical, with some programming and C language-based questions.
Questions
The interview was mostly technical. The last round was somewhat on personality assessment and gave me a chance to talk to the hiring manager and ask questions.
