Process
One technical interview, then a take-home test, followed by an on-site interview. After the on-site interview, I never heard back from them. The hiring manager is only hiring a candidate from the same country as him. Do not waste your time once you know where the HM is from.
Questions
A lot of windows function, self join, and behavior.
