Process

The interview process was excellent. It felt very genuine and there were no surprises. The internal recruiters were very kind, helpful, and responsive. I felt like I was able to effectively portray my skillset, and so on. I remember thinking that if I don't get an offer, I would be very satisfied with the process and have no regrets.

There were a mixture of different kinds of technical and non-technical questions, which in my opinion were very much aligned with what the job requires. There was no white-boarding or live random algorithm challenges. For the most part there were deep technical discussions and there was also a take home code challenge. Overall, it was a very pleasant experience!

Questions

There were no unexpected questions, they were mostly deep conversational questions and very relevant to my every day work.
