Process

I applied through an employee referral. The process took two months.

There were totally two interviews. For each, there would be some Q&A related to the resume and one or two LeetCode questions, maybe something like a class would be needed. You need to describe the time complexity.

Questions

It was something about the resume. It was not very technical.
