Process

I was contacted by a recruiter, and the process took about four weeks.

There was then a technical phone interview where a software engineer asked a few questions about my thought process and then had me code up a solution. The entire phone screening took about 45 minutes. Afterwards, I could ask the interviewer any questions I had.
