Process

Phone call with HR to discuss experience and projects.

Then, a coding challenge to complete within the next day or so, expected to take 1 to 2 hours. You are also asked to submit a code sample from a project.

After a review of your submission, there will be a 1-hour technical interview with another developer.

The technical interview involved looking at some PHP code and predicting the output (very simple).

Questions included how to speed up the code (e.g., looping over an array once instead of twice).

Next, you will write code to determine if braces are balanced in a language of your choosing via Coderpad.
