Question 1
They asked me some problem from LeetCode which was related to Binary Search.
Preliminary contest is pretty hard, though the interviews are very easy. I would advice to actually ask about working process and how company functions for a typical developer, because judging but what I've heard during interviews on this questions - it's not for everyone. Thus, do actually consider asking these questions and think about whether it works or not.
