Question: Behavioral questions about a tight deadline and a project I'm most proud of. The coding question was a binary search variation.
Round 2: Video Interview
Question: Behavioral questions about helping peers and conflict resolution. The coding question was a modified sliding window problem similar to the fruit basket problem.
Round 3: Team Interview
Question: The hiring manager and two senior software engineers interviewed me. They said that interns who perform well may return as L4 engineers. I explained each step of my coding process, but the interviewers gave little feedback. The binary search question I discussed was met with a simple "ok" after my explanation.
