Process
The interview process was about 4 hours from start to finish for me, but I had a competing offer, so it was definitely expedited.
I had two 45-minute Google Hangout interviews where I coded on a Google Doc while we talked over Hangouts.
From there, I waited a week to hear that I would be moving on to the Hiring Committee. Two weeks later, I received a phone call letting me know I had gotten the position!
Questions
They don't expect you to know anything outlandish. They realize for this position, you have only taken a handful of classes.
If you get an interview, they send you a PowerPoint with tips on what to study. Nothing I was asked was not on this PowerPoint. Follow their advice!
