Process

The interview process was fairly quick. I had an intro hiring manager interview, followed by a quick succession of interviews for the final round. There was a great deal of scheduling confusion around the interviews. Ironically, for a company that sells an HR product, their ATS/scheduling system was very cumbersome.

Questions

There was a question with some Python code that processed data. I was asked to refactor it.
