Process
I had four interviews. Each one consisted of a typical algorithm question. A few of the interviews included behavioral questions, though there was one particularly bad interviewer. He walked into the room, gave me a brief overview of the question, and then went back to work on his laptop. This was a great example of how they're looking for "problem solvers" when he wasn't paying attention.
