Interview Details

Please describe the interview / hiring process.
First-round interview was purely technical. First half on coding, second on probability. Probability was based on die rolling games, notably I was asked why the 'intuitive answer' was not true rather than just what the correct answer was, related to the Monty Hall problem. Coding question was about returning the order in which people leave a queue given a list of amounts people want to withdraw from an ATM with cap k, where if they cannot get out what they want they move to the back of the line.
