Process

The interview process went very smoothly.

I met with the HR Rep, then the Manager, and the 4 other developers on the team. Each of them had their own interview style, but each style complemented the other.

The interview consisted of:

  • Algorithm questions
  • Whiteboard coding questions
  • Personality questions

Questions

Basic Algorithms and Data Structures
