Process

On-campus interview:

  • Behavioral questions (e.g., "Tell me about a time when you worked in a group...")
  • Background information
  • One technical question

Total time: 30 minutes.

Easier than I was expecting, but I have not heard back yet, so I don't know if I will be invited on campus.

Review time complexity and data structures.
