A recruiter contacted me promptly after I applied and set me up with a phone screen. I had the onsite about a week later and had 5 sessions with different engineers. Of the five sessions, 3 were coding sessions, one was for design, and one just had behavioral/culture questions. For each coding session, I was asked one simple algorithm question and then a harder one. I ran out of time on two sessions to complete both questions.
Algorithms and one design question.
