Process
The technical coding interview was very standard, with a total time of 1 hour and approximately 45 minutes to solve a multi-part problem.
I appreciated that I was given a few minutes after to do a mini code review of my solution. This allowed me to explain ways I could improve the code if I had run out of time to complete it.
The interviewer was very friendly and responsive, making it an overall pretty positive experience.
Questions
The problem involved multiple parts where you gradually build a complete solution. Part 1 was pretty trivial, and the complexity increased in Part 2.
