HR recruiters are well prepared and keep constant communication of the overall process. I did not like the way technical screen was conducted by the engineer. Rather than discussing the question, when I started explaining how I would solve the question I got interrupted and told “no need to explain, just start coding.” Further, my interview link got changed at the last minute and interviewer made it sound like it was my fault for being late when I had been waiting for almost 10 minutes in the previous link. As a first impression, it did not signal a collaborative and empathetic engineering culture. I should not assume the interviewer is a representation of the company, but interviewers need better training when conducting technical screens.

Overall process took 2 weeks (HR call + tech screen)

I signed the NDA. The level of difficulty was LeetCode Medium.
