Process
Automatic coding OA.
Two questions were presented in about an hour. The question difficulty was mediumish.
I received another link to do a video interview; however, I believe this is also automatic. The questions were hosted on HackerRank.
Questions
One question was a recursive question. The directions were pretty confusing, and determining the base case was the most difficult part of the question.
