Interview
I applied online back December 2016 and was contacted a month later in January 2017 to take a simple debug and reasoning assessment. About a week after I was asked to do another assessment which was a little more complex than the previous one by not by much. A day after I completed the 2nd assessment I received the offer letter.

Question 1
The first question is LeetCode style algorithms question, and the second question gives a full stack repo (choice of Java, NodeJS, or Django) and asks to solve a backend issue which is causing a bug in the frontend. Unit tests must pass to pass the second question. You can run both backend/frontend indivdually or together
