Process

I met my interviewer at a conference, and we briefly discussed my qualifications, interests, and past projects.

Later, we had a phone interview and screen share, where we discussed my most successful project, what makes me a good candidate, and my past work experiences.

I answered some technical questions through screen share. We ended the interview with the interviewer answering some of my questions.

This was my first ever technical interview, and I was very nervous, but the interviewer was very helpful and guided me when I was having some trouble.
