Question 1
Medium Data Structure and and Algorithms problems.
I messaged a recruiter on LinkedIn who was able to get me a technical interview. After the initial get-to-know-each-other questions, I was asked two leetcode type of questions on hackerrank. The interviewer was very nice and patient even when I froze and couldn't think clearly.

Interview
100% fully a coding interview. Interviewer did not care to get to know me. Would preface a question with "you have 30 seconds to answer this."
