Question 1
Describe an pitfall you've experienced and how you overcame it.
There were two interviews. One was with the recruiter, and the meeting was 30 minutes long, mainly focused on my background with a little bit of technical discussion. Then I had the actual interview scheduled after the meeting with the recruiter.
The interview was 1.5 hours long and was broken into three sessions: technical, leadership, and then a final session that included both technical and leadership questions. The questions were based on my résumé, so everything they asked me related to my background, past experience, what tools I used, and how I used them.
Good interview process, very concise and responsive. One round of interviews then a response within the week of an offer or denial. Interview team was organized and flexible to work around my current job's schedule.
