Question 1
- fibonacci
- how do you deliver performant assets
- how the internet works
Found out about Knewton through career fair and applied directly through recruiter. Friendly people, pretty smooth interview. Had an initial challenge handed to me, a coding challenge made to take around 4 hours. After that, was offered a phone interview. The final step (I presume) was a 3-4 hours Skype session with back to back interviews with 4 employees. Three technical interviews, one culture fit.

Nothing really unexpected, although the initial coding challenge did take a good few hours.
