Interview was conducted over Hangouts. It happened a few minutes past the scheduled time, but there was a problem with the Hangouts link. After trying for several minutes, the interview had to be rescheduled. Next time, the link worked. There were a couple of exercises, and I had to clone two GitHub repositories. I didn't have much difficulty doing the exercises and was even commended by the interviewer. But after the interview was done, I didn't hear back for days, and when I followed up, I wasn't selected. It turned out I didn't do one of the exercises well, which came as a surprise because the interviewer accepted my answers. When I checked the exercise again, I found that the interviewer didn't go over all the questions in the exercise and didn't let me solve beyond that. This usually happens if I didn't do the previous exercise, but I did well on the previous exercise. It was shocking.
