The initial process was super fast. I was contacted by an internal recruiter, who connected me to another recruiter to assess the role that would best suit me. Finally, we agreed on a time for the initial technical interview with one of their development managers. From the way the recruiters organized everything, it seemed like they have a great process for internal communication.

Tech Interview with a Development Manager: The interviewer arrived a few minutes late, but that's understandable since he mentioned having to move between rooms. This is where things started getting unusual. He showed minimal interest in understanding me or my previous career path and accomplishments. There was no introduction to Agoda either. He spoke a bit about his own past experiences, shared a code pairing link, and immediately focused on "Array Problems" and the time complexity of different sorting algorithms. His emphasis was consistently on improving time complexity and demonstrating efficient coding. This approach felt inappropriate, considering they were interviewing someone with several years of experience, not a recent graduate. The questions were not related to practical, real-world problems or design patterns.

I was not interested in continuing further due to his rudeness in a couple of situations during the interview. I would not want to work with such an individual.

Typical array problems:

• Sort an array
• Merge two arrays
• Improve time complexity
