Interview
On campus interview, there were two rounds of 45 minutes each back to back. Both were one to one interview. Started with intro and then on white board was told to solve some problems like trees, recursion and threads. It went really well. The interview was not difficult but no specific reason of my rejection, but it was overall a good experience.
One brief screening interview and two back-to-back technical interviews over the phone. Interviews conducted by engineers and lasted about an hour each. Initial interview invitation was made about two months after application, and hiring process lasted a couple weeks. Interviewers may or may not be associated with eventual team placement.
