Interview
First, there was an offline coding step in which they asked me to solve two coding questions in 45 minutes. Then there was a phone interview in which the interviewer went through my CV and asked about my previous work experience. At the end there was a simple coding question. Then I had a second phone interview in which interviewer asked coding questions from the beginning which was surprising for me. After solving the first question with the help of interviewer, he asked another coding question which was simpler.
