Process

It's not that hard as long as you're focused. Get ready, already 20 days ahead of the interviews.

You will go through the phone screen interview and on-site. It's really tiring, and they require a lot of process.

Questions

Algorithmic questions and data structures.

Some life experience and everyday life questions.

Mostly, the questions are about arrays and pointers.

So, basically, be well-versed in Java, C++, and/or Python.
