Interview questions [1]
Question 1
The questions were about implementing modified BFS, some manipulation on arrays, designing a server architecture, creating a specific binary tree for a SDK (it was supposed to be generic).
The hiring process consists of a HackerRank home exam, followed by three technical interviews covering LeetCode-style problems and system architecture. Once this is done, you will have a final HR interview.

One HR interview, then two problem-solving interviews (beginer level) on HackerRank. You can choose the best programming language for you to use in solving problems. You should think out loud to enable your interviewer to understand how you would think to solve the problem.
