Had two technical. Did good on the first one, the second one was not good. then they asked for the third one and got passed into matching. The scheduling was a bit bad. The meeting links was a bit messed up one time.

Question 1
On traversing list looking for two specific matches. Similar to two sum problem.
I was offered an internship after only one technical coding phone interview. The interview was about 1 hour. We a started with some friendly get-to-know-you chit chat before getting into the coding. The coding problem started very easy but there were a few levels of extension that made the problem more challenging. After the main coding part of the interview we had some time left and the interviewer quizzed me on my knowledge of hash tables. Interviewer was very friendly and it was a great experience.

Cold, distant. Felt very unwelcoming and overall not a pleasant experience. Questions were LC hard and not in the subjects they said they would be. Ultimately not worth the effort.
