Process
I was given a few coding questions in the language of my choice. After that, I was asked some questions on strengths and weaknesses, and I had a chance to ask questions at the end. It was a pretty standard process overall.
Questions
String manipulation (replacing certain characters in a string with other characters) and edge cases!
I was asked to walk through my code, identify all edge cases, and modify my code if it was not robust enough.
