Process

I applied online.

There was an online interview in March. It consisted of a technical interview and a URAA interview back to back. There were different interviewers, but they asked similar questions in both interviews. The format was a self-introduction, a dive into the projects on my resume, and LeetCode questions.

Questions

The choice of the frontend tech stack. There was an LRU Cache coding task plus an explanation, especially about the data structure complexity.
