Neutral ExperienceNo Offer

Process

The interview was conducted over the phone, using a shared text editor from a testing site.

The interviewer began with general experience questions and then moved on to technical questions about items listed on my resume.

There was a basic question about looping through an array. I answered it verbally, then wrote up the solution and discussed alternatives.

The second question was more difficult to solve optimally and involved iterating on a basic solution.

The interview concluded with me asking a set of questions.
