Process
The process felt fairly standard, beginning with a timed code screen completed on your own. This was followed by a later code challenge conducted via phone.
Several calls with current employees and recruiters took place. These were designed both to help you understand if you would enjoy working with the company and for them to assess if you would be a good fit.
The overall process felt very streamlined.
Questions
