Process

Relatively quick response time after applying online. Was given a ~45 minute phone interview. Answered a few short questions first without implementation. The main question was relatively simple and did not require any complex algorithm knowledge. However, it was also designed to have many edge cases to be wary of. The interviewer was very helpful, giving nudges towards areas of your implementation that didn't handle all cases properly and asking good questions.
