They leave you alone for an hour in front of the computer and you have to solve SQL and algorithm problems on HackerRank — you can choose the problems, but they prefer you pick medium-level ones. The second interview is also technical, where (from what I understood) you’ll speak directly with the team leader, who will ask you various questions. There might even be a third one.

The NAT they have you take is more of a requirement sheet then a spec sheet. It's implied in the real-world that base functionality should be achieved, then features and the styles applied, my mistake was attempting everything in one submission; however each facet that I attempted to fulfill fell short in one place or another. Achieving what that asked for couldn't be done in 10 hours on a good day by any ASP.NET professional, and if you manage to get an offer for a well-done NAT, tell them no; because you're worth at least twice more than they'll offer you.
