I first saw a recruiting poster with an October deadline. I submitted my resume on the official website.

After two weeks, I received an email requesting a first one-on-one interview. One month later, I was told I was accepted to move forward.

The next one-on-one interviews were held in Poland, so they flew me there for three days. They paid for the transportation and accommodation at a four-star hotel.

In one evening, I had four interviews in a row with four different teams. After these, I was told I had received two offers, and I chose the team I wanted to be on. (There were no phone interviews.)

All five interviews followed the pattern:

• Behavioral (friendly conversation + resume details)
• Technical challenge (code on paper)
• Testing (solve different scenarios)
• Q&A

I received C questions and basic algorithms.

I found it surprisingly easy overall.
