It took 2-3 weeks between the initial call and the live-coding interview.
On the Live Coding, there were 2 engineers on the call. They were nice and appreciated my effort, even if the solution was no the best one.

Candidatei-me online. Fiz uma entrevista na empresa Booking.com (Amsterdã).
Entrevista
This was the first interview. In general it was a relaxed conversation with in depth moments. The main goals was to share information about the applicant, the company and see if there is a possible match. I like the academic nuance but the feedback is taking too long and is not clearly communicated.
