Process

I was contacted by a recruiter and passed the first half-tech, half-non-tech phone screening. It included basic questions like:

  • "Walk me through your resume."
  • "Talk about a project."
  • "What if you were a leader of a team and two team members had a problem, how would you solve it?"

The technical part wasn't hard; it involved simple puzzles.

Then, I was invited to their center for an in-person interview.
