My interview process consisted of two rounds: a phone screen and a technical interview.

The phone screen is with the recruiter to determine if you are a good fit for the role. The second round is more technical, consisting of technical behavioral questions and coding pairing.

For the coding challenge/pairing, expect more algorithmic problems – the kind you learn in college, you will definitely see them here. I was never asked about other software engineering principles, just algorithms.

Some takeaways from my interview:

• The interviewer had a very difficult accent, which made it really hard to understand what he wanted.
• He didn't like my approach to the coding problem.
• He had only 3 years of experience and talked over me throughout my coding process.

This was too rude for me, so I ended the interview process. It was just too much.

I would recommend going back to learn old-school algorithms as well as new ones. However, beware of rude interviewers, as they can be very biased, especially those who have only worked for a few years.
