Behavioral
The recruiter was over 15 minutes late to the interview. She then talked about studying for the bar for about 5 minutes, leaving less than 10 minutes for the actual interview. She briefly described the company and asked one question. She said I would be moving to the next round and that she or April would contact me the next day to schedule it. However, I was ghosted for a week before receiving a rejection email stating they decided not to move forward after reviewing my resume.

Coding Technical Behavioral
I applied online and got a call for a phone screen about a week later. The recruiter was super helpful and asked some basic behavioral questions. After that, I was invited to a one-hour interview with two coding questions. The first one was a Java question about finding a green ball, which was a bit confusingly worded and required a divide and conquer approach. I think I messed up my explanation of how I'd solve it. The second question was a front-end task where I had to recreate a navigation bar using HTML/CSS, which was pretty straightforward. Even though the interviewers were nice, I got really nervous and felt like I bombed the first question. I ended up getting a rejection email within a week.
Confirmed questions2 questions
- Tell me about the Java question where you had to find the green ball, and the HTML & CSS question where you had to replicate a UI.
- Could you elaborate on the Java and HTML/CSS questions you were asked?

Behavioral Technical Coding
The interview process had 3 stages. First was a 30-minute phone screen with introductory questions and a salary discussion. The interviewer was friendly and shared company info. I got moved to the next round. Second, a 1-hour technical interview with the hiring manager and a senior engineer. After intros and an overview, I got an algorithms question and a testing/QA question. The senior engineer helped with APIs. I got to ask questions too. Interviewers were friendly. I didn't get selected, but the process was good. If I had passed, the next step was a 2-day virtual onsite, 3 hours each day, with the team.
