Process
Took one round of phone interview and then one onsite interview.
Interviewed with about three people onsite. They asked what I did in the past and some questions about language and algorithms.
Obviously, the person did not know the right answer, and after I pointed it out, he didn't believe it.
The second person asked more absurd questions; the question was even invalid. After I pointed it out, he admitted he forgot that question in detail and then took about 10 minutes to fix the question. I think no one can solve that stupid algorithm during an interview because he said he didn't as well.
