Interview
Interviewer were very interactive, and gave pointers when needed. the feedback throughout the interviews were also great, and recruiters did a good job of managing expectations. time management was my biggest struggle during the coding interviews & that was ultimately what disqualified me.
Standard double phone screen followed by onsite - recruiter was communicative and expedited process as needed. Interviewers were mildly checked out, but fair and helpful. Recruiter calls before interviews were excessive, didn't seem to be actually helpful.
