I applied in-person. The process took 1 week. I interviewed at Techstars (Chicago, IL) in May 2013
Interview
I sat down in a one on one interview with the guy in charge of running the branch. He asked questions regarding my programming capabilities and database knowledge. He also asked riddle questions and asked me to think out loud.
Interview questions [1]
Question 1
If you have 8 lead balls, one gold ball of the same weight (visually the same) and a scale you can only use twice, how do you figure out which ball is the gold ball?
