Process
Overall, the interviewer was very friendly.
He introduced the company to me.
The first part is asking about the projects in your resume. The second part is doing an algorithm problem. They emphasize RESTful API experience.
Questions
Algorithm question: compressing the string. e.g., aaabbb -> a3b3
