Process
I received a HackerRank coding question after a campus job fair. They then contacted me to conduct a Skype interview. It took them a while to schedule a time.
The 45-minute Skype interview consisted of two parts:
- The first half focused on resume questions.
- The second half involved an online coding challenge.
