Process

The interview process was easy. I was contacted by a recruiter and we set up the interview. The interview itself was relaxed and one-on-one with an interviewer.

During the interview, I was asked to:

  • Write code
  • Discuss my resume

I don't believe the first round is intended to be very difficult, but I did make a mistake on one of the technical questions.
