Interview
I applied online and received a follow up email with an assessment link. The assessment was from hackerrank and I was ask to finish it in 45 mins. total 2 questions in my language choice. One was easy and the second one was medium to hard. I didn't prepare well on the second one so I think I only got 1.5/2 correct.
