Technical Case Behavioral

The interview process included a variety of logical tests and puzzles, focusing more on the right thinking process than specific answers. Time wasn't a major constraint, as the interviewer was more interested in understanding how I approached problems. It involved simple math, fill-in-the-blanks, some unusual puzzles, square-cube questions, and a case study.

Behavioral Technical

The interview process was engaging and inspiring, with probing questions. It was a panel interview with the entire team involved. It was lengthy and detailed, but the people were polite, courteous, and friendly. Each team member took turns asking questions, making it participatory. It seems like a pretty flat and lean structure.
