Process
Got in through an employee referral. The process was quick!
The first step was an HR screen. The interviewer was really nice and asked standard questions, such as:
- How do you solve a problem when you come across it?
- Which is your favorite project?
- What was your role in it?
I heard back in two days and was scheduled for a tech screen. The interviewer was helpful, but I found the questions a bit difficult. I would really like one more chance at interviewing with the company.
