I had two interviews, with RH and the second with two seniors software engineers. The first one was just to know more about the company and about the position. Then I had to work on a mini-challenge for three days. Once that I was working in another company at the time, I think the time was short. After the challenge, I went to an interview with two Seniors Software Engineers from AI department where I talked about technologies that I know, architecture designs, and my daily work in past jobs.
