Question 1
Perosnally I loved their interview process and found it more meaningful than most other companies except for round 3 where the interviewer was looking for a scripted answer which necessarily was not better than the answer provided, nor was it intutive. I did not understand why he didn't clarify the reuirement properly just fearing maybe that much clarity wold become a hint towards the scripted answer he was looking for ?
