Process

First phone interview for screening.

Had to solve a puzzle and explain the solution verbally. Not that hard to solve with a paper in front of you.

Second interview was on-site. Three whiteboard coding interviews with three different engineering managers.

Questions

Solve the ball sorting algorithm and explain it.
