Interview questions [1]
Question 1
Needed to know OOP from programming interview. Binary search was helpful for algorithms interview. (Behavioral) Give me an example of when you were given feedback and how you reacted to it.
First had a phone call with a recruiter, then a technical assessment through a third party (with a person, not one of those websites), and then a three hour interview with three members of the team. Two of the three hour segments were coding, and the other was a behavioral.
