Process
Coding challenge, then phone interview. The coding challenge was pretty standard Hackerrank with a few multiple-choice questions. Although I didn't pass all the test cases and probably got some MC wrong, I passed and got a phone interview. The interview question was related to concurrency, but it was very difficult to understand the question. Although the interviewer tried to be nice, I feel he came across as condescending instead.
