Process

I applied online and took a 3-question coding exam, with 90 minutes to complete. The questions were fairly easy, focusing on string manipulation.

I received a request for an interview later in the week.

I met with two different people for 30-minute interviews.

  • The first interview reviewed my resume.
  • The second interview was a technical interview. We discussed processes versus threads and heaps. Then, we moved to a website where I was asked to write code to solve a problem.
