Entrevista
The interview was an hour long and two employees watched over me. The whole process felt awkward and poorly prepared. First the interviewers were about 20 minutes late to the interview, and I found it difficult to build a rapport with either interviewer. They did not spend anytime with pleasantries or looking over my resume they dove straight into a skills test.

given a number as a string write a algorithm to map to its oral description. I.e.
"1" -> "11" //this can be thought of as there is one one.
"11" -> "21" // there are two ones
"21" -> "1211" // there is one two and one one
"1211" -> "111221" ect. //there is one one, one two and two ones
given the output from the first question write a algorithm to calculate how many possible inputs could have created that output. for example.
"1211" could be interpreted as one two and one one || one hundred and twenty one ones.

I did OA and phone screen. During the phone screen, the HR did not ask too much questions about myself and mainly spent time talking about next steps. And then ghost me from there. This is not a good interview experience and a timely feedback or reject would be much better.
