The technical section included coding questions focused on algorithms and data structures. The interviewer was very friendly and encouraged me to think aloud. They asked questions about time complexity and edge cases, which I found engaging. Overall, it was a straightforward process and I felt comfortable throughout the interview. I was given some time to ask questions at the end, which helped me understand the team’s dynamics better.
