Aptitude matters. Coding matters. Clean coding matters. Approach, more than answer, matters. Sometimes, the problem might just be puzzles. And more than solving, how you think about the solution matters more.

Online test, then an in-person interview in Redmond, WA. All travel expenses, including airfare, hotel, and daily meals, were covered by the employer. The campus was nice and big, and I met friendly people there.

The interview process was lengthy and drawn out due to the abysmal scheduling of both the engineering team and the human resources team. I waited almost two months to receive the final decision. Would not recommend!
