Neutral ExperienceNo Offer

Process

Coding test -> Onsite Interview

Was informed that the first interview would be purely behavioral. If you passed it, the second interview (right after the first) would be technical.

Was confused, as they went ahead and asked a lot of technical questions in the first one.

Didn’t make it to the second one, but I would love to find out what they will ask in the second.

Questions

Introduce yourself, projects/work experiences, languages that you know, and your experience with learning a new language.

Whiteboard: Write a function that takes in a string input and returns the first non-repeating character.
