Process
Pre-interview phone screening with a recruiter.
Then, three "virtual onsite" interviews focused on:

- Kubernetes troubleshooting
- Infrastructure design
The application was processed quickly, and I received the initial call within a day.
Questions
Write a Python script to fetch a file at some URL and print its contents.
