Interview
The interviewer is chill, questions are not difficult, just stay calm and let the interviewer know what you know. It is a virtual on-site interview so you don't have to worry about other things except Leetcode questions.
Literally nothing. Just an online assessment and got offer. Later rescinded.Worst place to work at.Not even considering this company ever again. There are much better companies out there who treat potential employees fairly.
