Process
I completed an online assessment. A month later, I heard back to have two online interviews: one technical and one behavioral.
The assessment consisted of nine questions:
- Three behavioral
- Three technical
- One question asking about my thought process on the last technical question.
Overall, it wasn't a difficult assessment.
