Interview questions [1]
Question 1
Describe a challenging project you worked on and how you overcame obstacles.
Two rounds, both were a mix of behavioral and technical. Did a CoderPad interview in both in Python, questions were about medium difficulty. Waited a while to get the official decision, overall not a bad process.
Very good process. They were very thorough and there were multiple people there. Not too scary. HR were approachable. Would definitely recommend for others to apply if you were thinking about it.
