Process
I applied online.
There were many rounds of implementation-heavy coding, which honestly got tiring and boring. There was also a behavioral and debugging round, which was excruciating. The work they were talking about sounded extremely boring and maybe unethical. Some interviewers were good, but some just turned their camera off and were silent the whole time for the coding round. I would not work here if I received the offer.
