Process
- I submitted my resume to GHC last year.
- I was contacted by HR.
- I talked with HR by phone.
- A technical interview (C++). I don't think it was difficult if you spent some time on LeetCode. I was not prepared, so my performance was poor. I understand that the interviewer might have lost patience with me, so he started to eat. At the end of the interview, I said, "Have a nice day," and he hung up the phone before I finished speaking.
