Interview
Fluffy talk from recruiter. Kind of awkward phone screen with two very junior people who really did not know how to make me feel at ease. Anyway I think I did just fine but then a week later heard that the "interview committee" decided to not go further. I guess I did not tick the right boxes or was not as fast a code monkey as they expected me to be.

Interview
After phone conversation with recruiter, I had phone interview in following week. Interviewer called me on time. But I was given the wrong interviewer. First he went through my experience. and then gave two coding problems. I felt he did not prepare for his interview problems well. We spent lots of time on the time complexity. Also it seems that he wanted the answer he wanted, and not realized there are several solutions.
