Process
Great interview process that was a lot more conversational than based on LeetCode. They asked me a couple of technical questions, but they were just basic programming questions. HR was also very nice throughout the whole process.
Only downside was they interviewed me first and then didn't respond for like a month while they interviewed other candidates, then decided to call me out of the blue with an offer. It would've been nice to have some kind of status update.
Questions
Tell me about this on your resume, etc.
Basic coding questions as well (nothing harder than Fibonacci).
