Neutral ExperienceNo Offer

Process

They have a very thorough interview process, starting with a series of phone interviews.

The first stage was with HR, where they confirmed my continued interest and then set up a time for a higher-level HR phone interview.

This second HR interview requested details about my work history, general knowledge of software development, and my pay range.

After satisfying the HR review with the hiring manager, I received an email with coding exercises. These involved creating a method to manipulate strings and a class similar to a binary tree with several capabilities.

Subsequently, I received an invitation to a phone interview with the hiring manager. That interview required fast and deep responses to questions about algorithms, especially the one I had created.

Questions

They asked questions to get a feel for how well you understand software development.
