Process
The interview consisted of two hour-long coding interviews over the phone, on a Google document. The first interviewer was 10 minutes late and changed the question two times. He posed the question and then interrupted and questioned my logic as my thoughts were forming. He gave me one problem. This was followed by a 15-minute break. However, the second interviewer was much friendlier, and it went well. This interview consisted of two coding questions that were much more manageable. The second interviewer also allowed for questions at the end, so having a few prepared is smart.
