Interview
It was a phone interview. 60 minutes. 2 min self introduction and the interviewer didn't introduce himself except the name. 2 Leetcode problems, both medium and fair. No follow-up as time was tight. Need to run test cases. Around 5 minutes for questions. Overall a pretty standard phone interview.

Question 1
I don't remember the question, but one is BFS pretty basic pattern, the other one is LinkedList also pretty basic , but need to pay attention to details.
1 HR phone call. In the phone call, you will be asked your interest. I didn’t receive any further response even I already followed up. So I think I didn’t be considered to move on to the next process

Interview
Absolutely horrible communication. I emailed to reschedule well in advance of the requested 24 hour window and had to follow up 3 times in order to get a response. When finally starting the interview, the interviewer informs me that I must be implementing my solution in C++ because its "company policy" (even though in the email I was told I can use any language I want). When I proceeded to tell him this, I was met with a blunt "well I don't know this language". Interviewer did a horrible job explaining the prompt and explaining himself when I would ask for clarifications. Honestly a waste of time
