Process

The whole process took about three weeks.

I had a phone interview with a VP and was then invited to an onsite, which consisted of two interviews: one with a senior engineer and one with another VP.

The phone screening included general resume questions and two short coding questions.

During the onsite:

  • The first interview was an hour-long whiteboard session.
  • The second was focused on general fit questions to understand what I'd like to do and learn.
