Process
I was contacted via LinkedIn and we talked for a bit about what I've done. We then set up a phone interview.
The interview was over the phone with two other interviewers. The question was about returning the n closest points on a plane.
The interviewers were hard to understand and focused on minor code-related details instead of the general concepts.
