Process
Got a referral that led to an almost immediate invitation for an initial call.
Three weeks later, I was scheduled for a 30-minute recruiter call.
After that was a 1-hour virtual LeetCode interview. If I had passed, then there was a 3-hour technical interview with the team lead.
Questions
Practically a Leetcode question for the coding question.
