Two Barrels interview questions

The company insists on receiving a cover letter in order to even look at your application and also requires a portfolio. The job description was kind of unprofessional and setting the wrong tone and expectations regarding the interview process. While they conduct themselves in a loose and not strictly business manner, they still expect you to be professional. The interviewer completely forgot about the interview or just decided not to show up until reminded thought other channels. The call quality was terrible and I couldn't make out what they were saying. I was rejected in the screening interview and was encouraged to apply again. I did and after wasting 45 minutes writing a good cover letter I never received anything back, not even a rejection.

The process began with a 20–30 minute phone screening with a recruiting coordinator. They gave me an overview of the company and asked about the projects and experiences listed on my resume. The coordinator was incredibly nice and supportive throughout the entire process, which made for a great first impression. About a week later, I received a call to set up a final round in-person interview with some of the software engineers I’d potentially be working with. The in-person interview lasted about an hour. It started with a deep dive into the projects on my resume. They asked increasingly detailed questions about the technologies and features I used, likely to understand the depth of my knowledge and where my boundaries were. After that, they gave me two technical questions, not LeetCode style, but more open-ended problem-solving scenarios. These questions weren't very difficult, put some brain power into it, and show your thought process, and you'll be fine. They got back to me with an offer within three business days. Overall, it was a well-organized and fair interview process with a good balance of technical and personal discussion. Seems like a really good company to work for.
