Process

Initial call with recruiter, followed by an initial tech screen over the phone.

The recruiter was very friendly, and we got along well.

The interviewer was also nice, but I wasn't able to complete the problem adequately.

The phone screen included a brief rundown of my history and some basic algorithm/data structure questions, followed by the coding portion.

Questions
