Process

One phone screen and two technical interviews with an engineer.

It was very difficult to understand the first interviewer. I thought I did terribly on the first phone interview, but to my surprise, I was given a second phone interview. The second interview went very well, and the question was fairly easy.

Questions

A question about how to look for a value in a dictionary-type data structure.
