Process
I was recently contacted by a recruiter who scheduled a phone interview for me in a couple of weeks.
During the interview, I was asked some C++ trivia questions, which were okay. However, I also had to answer coding questions related to dynamic programming, which may not be relevant to the specific software jobs I am applying for.
I suggest that if you're serious about the job, you prioritize your interview schedule and keep Nuro at the bottom of your list, as it might not be the best use of your time.
Questions
