Process

The interview process consisted of three rounds.

I had an in-office meeting to debug and improve a snippet of unoptimized code.

Next was a take-home assignment that took about 10 hours. I completed this over the course of about two weeks whenever I had the time to pick away at it, and despite the long time getting back to them, it didn't pose an issue.

Finally, there was a 3-4 hour in-person round with multiple one-on-one interviews, mostly cultural, but a technical whiteboard question was included.

Bear in mind my experience was a bit different to others due to odd timings and conflicts on my end. Things might not need to flow into two different in-person interviews as they did for me.

Overall, the process is pretty casual. People are helping you out every step of the way, so it's very collaborative.

Questions
