It was a really nice interview process. I had a 15-minute phone call with the team leader, and then we set up a 2-hour technical interview on Google Meet. About an hour into the interview, we paused, and I got an email with a coding question. We then reconvened after an hour to go over my solution together. The interviewer was super friendly and kind. Even though I didn't get the offer, HR sent me detailed feedback on my solution. Overall, it felt like a very positive experience.

We started with a brief phone call to go over the role and what they're looking for, and then I had to do a take-home assignment that took about 2 hours. The assignment was a traveling salesman problem.

It was a really nice interview process. First, there was a 15-minute phone chat with the team lead. Then, we set up a 2-hour technical interview on Google Meet. About an hour into that, we paused the meeting, and I got an email with a coding question. We jumped back into the meeting an hour later to go over the solution together. The interviewer was super friendly and helpful. Even though I didn't get the job, HR sent me really detailed feedback on my code. All in all, it was a pretty good experience.
