Process
Behavioral, CS Knowledge, Coding Question
20 minutes behavioral, a comfortable and relaxing talk.
After that, the CS Questions part was really easy for anyone who actually studied CS/CE. However, I messed it up because I was trying to answer very fast.
The interviewer also spoke fast and didn't give me time between questions. I guess it's testing my response under pressure.
Then it's the coding interview. Just one question about binary search trees.
