I was contacted by a recruiter in Austin via the foobar challenge.

I was then connected with a recruiter in Mountain View, who arranged for two phone screenings with engineers. During these screenings, we coded on a shared Google doc.

The questions weren't especially difficult. Unfortunately, I was rather nervous and did poorly.

The first screening involved string pattern-matching. Essentially, you have an array of words encoded in a specific pattern, and you're asked to see if a given word matches a word in the array.

The second screening involved calculating a moving average for a stream of data. I was asked for the time complexity after I finished the code.
