Process
First, the recruiter asked me to finish a coding sample. The coding sample consisted of two basic programming questions; one of them was to parse a file path. After I passed it, I was asked to have a phone screen with one of their engineers. Then I had the phone interview but got rejected with a phone call from the recruiter on the next day. The interviewer asked me to smooth a stock chart, but I didn't come up with a good solution.
