Really straightforward and clear review process, with cool questions and tasks. I had an architectural interview and an algorithm interview, both were well-organized and engaging. HR had a great vibe. They made a competitive offer and gave detailed feedback.

Technical Coding Behavioral
The interviewer was really nice. I had 4 interviews in total. First was a quick chat with HR/Recruiter. Then, a 1-hour technical interview with a Software Engineer. After that, another coding interview to test my problem-solving abilities. Finally, I had an interview with the Managers, which felt like a cultural fit interview.

The interview has a 30 min theory part and then 30 mins for 2 whiteboard algorithms, though they're supposed to take about an hour. There's also some time for your questions at the end. Sometimes there's an online coding algo test before the main interview.
