Process
A recruiter reached out to me.
After a typical phone screen, they invited me onsite.
They gave me the list of interviewers I'm going to meet, but they refused to reveal any other information about the interview rounds.
Questions
A complicated programming round question was given with two hours time and a very slow, unconfigured laptop that froze multiple times. Obviously, I couldn't finish the program.
Another simple web page design question was presented, with access to the internet.
We discussed my projects and some basic REST and security questions.
