Process
The interview process begins with a few HackerRank coding questions.
During the in-person interview, there are more general programming knowledge questions (no actual coding, at least for me) and some behavioral questions.
Questions
Some simple coding questions using arrays, lists, etc.
Questions tend to change from what I hear, but they are generally "easier" questions that most people can do.
