Just got the invite for the DB first round/superday (first round is on one day, and if you pass, the superday is the next). Has anyone gone through this process before? What did the interviews look like, in terms of technicality, length, and so on. Thank you!

When is your interview(s)?
I had two options for the first round, August 13, or 15. I still have to pick. The problem is, I'm abroad at the moment, and I still have to figure out how I'm going to make it to NYC.
