Process
I applied online. The process took three weeks.
- First interview: A technical question with one of the engineers, who asked how to implement the "cd" command in Python to navigate between directories.
- Second interview: A behavioral interview with an engineer, basically asking how you work with others.
Overall, I didn't have a good experience because the interviewers were kind of rude, and I was really nervous, which didn't help.
Questions
