Process
The process was very fast. I had an internal referral. It was very much Java-based (some trivia and coding). Unfortunately, I was not familiar with MySQL, which was the other topic that was popular.
I happened to be in town after two phone screens and did an onsite. They were highly accommodating to my sudden schedule, and everyone was pleasant and friendly.
Great office environment.
Questions
