Process
Applied during college career fair; got an interview two weeks after.
The interview was by Skype, lasting 40 minutes plus another 40 minutes. The first session focused on cultural fit, and the second was technical, asking you to write some code.
This included printing the first 20 Fibonacci numbers and some SQL queries.
