Process
The interview was a typical mix of technical and behavioral questions. It started with the technical portion, which allowed little time for the behavioral questions. The technical questions were long and tedious, and they did not pertain to software engineering; they were more like math brain teasers. I believe this was up to the interviewers' discretion, so it's not a blanket statement.
