Two interviews were conducted.
The first was a basic overview of my resume and a review of a data structure.
The second interview was stated to be purely technical, but it turned out to be behavioral.
We discussed a specific full-stack application that I built.
I was asked a question on how to implement a hashmap and the theory behind it. There was no code involved, as it was a phone interview.
