Process

The first round was three hours long: a very interesting problem involving getting, operating on, and posting data using API calls.

The second round was a culture fit interview with my recruiter, Glory. We talked about my prior classroom and workplace experiences.

The third round was on-campus. It involved system design and coding rounds, each lasting one hour. The interviewers were very friendly and asked probing technical questions covering the breadth of my knowledge, my resume, my design decisions in the problem, and so on. I felt challenged by the questions but never overly so. The coding question did not rely on having a particular insight but rather examined how I break down a problem and approach it.

My recruiter, Glory, was extremely efficient, cordial, and helpful throughout the process and afterward. It was an absolute pleasure working with her.
