Senior Backend Engineer Interview Experience - Gurgaon, Haryana
Process
I had applied directly through their website and was scheduled for coding rounds on Coderbyte.
There were two rounds on the same day. It was stated that Round 2 would only happen if Round 1 was passed.
The results were shared after three to four days.
I was able to code the coding problems.
In the design part, the interviewer changed the requirements mid-way. I tried to give my best answer.
I received a generic rejection email with no feedback. It's hard to say what went wrong, but I believe the design part cost me.
