Process
I was initially contacted by a recruiter and was then interviewed via Skype.
The interviewer had a pretty strong accent, so it was hard to follow him at some points during the interview.
He didn't spend time asking me about my background, but he was kind enough to respond to my questions at the end.
Questions
I wasn't asked anything particularly difficult on this interview. The question that I remember was: 'Write a function to calculate the square root of a number without using the square root function.'
