Process

I was asked to proceed to two rounds of back-to-back, 45-minute phone interviews, followed by one other phone interview. During these interviews, the interviewer called, and we went through a Google Doc. Usually, there was one or two programs I had to write, with an after-discussion on time complexity, etc.

I also had time to ask questions. They did not ask about things on my resume or projects; everything was coding.
