Process
The first round is a phone interview where the hiring manager introduces the company and role, and asks about past experiences and projects.
The second round is a video call technical interview where I was asked some general object-oriented programming and data structures fundamentals. I was also asked to complete two simple C coding questions and explain my approach to an online assembly coding challenge that I completed before this call.
The final round is onsite, where team members ask about past experiences and ask more C coding questions.
