Process
I met the recruiter at a campus job fair.
The first interview involved a simple question about how URL requests are processed and how DNS works, followed by a technical question that asked me to implement part of a regex filter.
The second interview was via Skype and had two separate sections. The first technical question was finding anagrams, and the second technical question was finding the longest common substring of a variable number of strings.
Questions
In the second technical question, I used a library function called 'zip'. The interviewer then asked me to implement it after I had finished the original question.
