Interview
I applied through a recruiter. The process took a week.
I had a phone screen interview. The interviewer was a junior engineer, he gave me two coding problems.
When I was explaining the solution before coding he doesn't give me any feedback. I was just to be talking with a wall.
I have completed the problems with a working solution on time. Both solutions worked correctly and have good time complexity.
When I had to explain the code he seems to not understand simple conditions and recursions.
He didn't give me any feedback on any solution.
After the interview I have checked my code and run some test, both problems were resolved correctly. :)
Next day I received an email that I will not continue with the process.

Interview
Was greeted by a person who basically walked me around the office during my interview, did a couple of rounds with a group on a whiteboard solving a coding challenge, and one to solve a software architecture challenge. Had lunch onsite. And one round of interview with someone who wasn't technical.
