Process

Phone call, DSA, then Systems Design interview.

Unfortunately, there was an error during the system design portion, and I guess the interviews ended there.

There was a couple of weeks' lag time before hearing back whether there was going to be a reschedule or not.

Questions

2 DSA questions and then system design
