Process

I interviewed with two engineers and whiteboard-coded with both. I also spoke with the direct manager and discussed the goals and details of the current project. The first interview involved coding in SQL, and the second involved coding in Java to solve a basic algorithm question. Overall, I had a positive experience.

Questions

Since I would be dealing with database operations, I implemented some queries using SQL.
