Process
I completed an online assessment with two questions.
This was followed by a first-round interview on Coderpad and Bluejeans video conference. The interview lasted 45 minutes.
A second-round interview will follow if things go well.
Questions
There were two coding questions.
We spent 30 minutes on the first question, and the rest of the time on another question which I didn't finish.
