Process
I applied for the position through LinkedIn, and within a week, an HR representative contacted me about the opportunity.
For the following week, I had two technical phone interviews with members of the technical team. I cleared both interviews and was then called for a day-long onsite interview.
The onsite interview process was pretty smooth. It mostly consisted of open-ended questions, such as how I would design a search tool, and some questions about debugging skills.
Questions
The questions were a bit tricky, like the open-ended ones where there is no right or wrong answer.
