Process

Thorough, but enjoyable interview process. Went through several different types of interviews: systems design, live coding, pair programming, and behavioral.

Everyone was extremely nice during the interview process. When I got frazzled, the interviewers were good at kindly putting me back on track. I left each stage feeling that even if I didn’t get the job, at least I had a good experience.

Questions

I was asked to design a vending machine.
