Engineering Residency Program Interview Experience

Process

Applied online and received an email after 2 days. Had two 45-min technical interviews back to back (over phone, Google Docs). Didn't really get asked anything behavioral, and interview questions were straightforward (like implementing basic algorithms you would've learned from school). I messed myself up during the first interview, but the interviewer was nice and kept asking me to explain what I was thinking. Second interviewer did not seem interested (hard to gauge over the phone).

Questions

Implementing graph traversal methods.
