Asked lots of detailed questions. Started writing ideas on the board while thinking out loud. Implemented first reasonable solution in detail and refined as needed.

Through questions like this, interviewers are mostly trying to test your skillset (and its relevance to the role) as robustly as possible, so be prepared for multiple offshoots and followups. It could be a useful exercise to do mocks with friends or colleagues in SurveyMonkey to get a real sense of what the interview is actually like. Alternatively Prepfully has a ton of SurveyMonkey Senior Software Engineer experts who provide mock interviews for a pretty reasonable amount. prepfully.com/practice-interviews
