Process

The process involved three one-on-one interviews at the Cambridge, MA office over the course of 4 hours. Two of the interviews were strictly technical, and the other was behavioral and included a reasoning question. I heard back within a week of the interviews that I had gotten the offer and accepted it via a phone call with my recruiter.
