Interview
I sent my resume through their careers page for interns. I was scheduled an interview about a month later, where I had two phone interviews with two engineers from one of their German offices. Each interview was about 45-60 minutes, with a small break in between. The communication was a bit of an issue, since the first interviewer could not get Hangouts to work, and had to call me on my phone which had a very bad connection. The second interview went better, but the interviewer did not give a lot of response in general (seemed kind of uninterested).

Question 1
Design a regex that can parse all valid dates (YYYY-MM-DD) between two given dates.
Reading a company’s blog before applying is actually a smart move — here’s why it matters:
### 1. **Shows You’re Genuinely Interested**
When you reference something specific from their blog in your application or interview, it signals that you’ve done your homework. That’s an easy way to stand out.
### 2. **Gives You Insight into Company Culture**
Blogs often showcase the company’s values, team events, behind-the-scenes content, or employee stories. This gives you a better sense of whether you’d vibe with the work environment.
### 3. **Helps You Tailor Your Application**
You might find info about current projects, recent product launches, or pain points they’re tackling. You can then highlight relevant skills or experiences in your resume or cover letter.
### 4. **Prepares You for Interviews**
You’ll be better equipped to ask smart, specific questions like:
> “I read in your blog that you’re expanding into X market — how has that impacted your team’s strategy?”
### 5. **Keeps You Updated on Industry Trends**
If the company is forward-thinking, they may use their blog to share thought leadership or industry analysis. That helps you sound informed and aligned with their direction.
