United StatesPosted Feb 2019 · Candidate report, summarized by Dataford

I started with a quick phone screen that felt more like a checkpoint than a full conversation—multiple-choice questions about C++.

After that, about a week later, I got a second call with the hiring manager. That round focused heavily on my C++ background, and it ended with a live coding problem to solve. The whole flow was fairly direct: short recruiter-style pre-screen, then a manager call, then actual problem-solving.

What stood out was how much the process emphasized implementation specifics early. Even when the questions were framed as “screening,” the second round didn’t stay purely conversational—it turned into a coding task, which pushed me to think clearly under time pressure. Overall it felt like an interview
