Process
After applying for the positions, the internal recruiter scheduled a phone screen interview with a team lead.
The interview process, which I didn't finish, was fairly straightforward:
- Phone screen
- On-site interview paid for by the company (I didn't make it to this stage).
The phone screen was less than an hour long, and the interviewer called on time.
Questions
The questions were basic data structures or language-specific questions. You should not need any preparation to answer these questions.
