Recruiter contacted me to set up a call. In less than 10 minutes I was insulted and told that she was giving me the benefit of the doubt by calling me, and then proceeded to say she did not have to call me because she is so busy. Why set up a call? That's very unprofessional and degrading to be told upfront you are not good enough and not worthy of a recruiter's time. I'd rather just get the auto-reject.

Interview
Recruiter called me 15 min after our scheduled time. Did not apologize and did not even ask if it is still a good time to talk. Instead they rushed straight into talking about the company and asking me questions. They also mentioned that they’re interviewing candidates for this role in case their intern does not accept the offer. Told me they’ll follow up by the end of the week but never heard back.
I applied through an employee referral. I interviewed at Collective Health in Feb 2018

If you can pass most of the medium problems on LeetCode you are set.
Be prepared for values based questions as well. Not a lot of focus on systems design, but know your basic data structures.
