      Interview

      I met the company representatives at the career fair and submitted my resume there. I then received a follow up email in 3 weeks time requesting an initial phone interview with a recruiter where we chatted about my interests and career plans. This was followed up by two difficult technical interviews which over Skype which involved coding and multiple rounds and discussions over possible flaws and optimizations. The process was sped up to fit into a period of 9 days since I had an offer pending from another company.
