Process

I applied through an employee referral. The process took 4 weeks.

    1. DSA - question based on level order traversal + 1D DP - Did very well. Handled edge cases and answered all the followup questions on space optimizations.
    1. LLD - question on Designing a Library for Any Board Game - didn't do well.
    1. HLD - question on Designing distributed Authentication System - Interviewer was at Managerial role, who didn't even listen to what I was designing and explaining, said he is on the way to office and held the call. Never asked follow up questions. I was in mid way of designing, he barged in and said the design looks good and wrap up in middle before the allocated time. I knew it was not complete and asked for more time. He said to complete the design if I feel its not completed and he left the meeting. It was rude. I completed the design really well within the time. It was an easy question. I felt like he had a person in mind and attended the interview formally.
    1. BR - NA (didn't get shortlisted)
