Process
The interview process is impersonal. You go through it, passing approximately 5 hours of interviews, only to be put on a waitlist. This is ridiculous.
Not only that, but if you don't choose Python or JavaScript, you will be stuck with the short end of the stick.
Questions
HTTP requests, non-algorithmic stuff pretty much.
