Positive ExperienceNo Offer

Process

There's a recruiter call before they send you the online assessment.

The online assessment is 90 minutes to complete 2 questions you would typically find on LeetCode or HackerRank.

Afterwards, I was put in an interview loop.

There were 2 rounds of this, and then 1 round of system design. The last round is an HR round.

Questions

The recruiter call was pretty basic. They asked about my previous experience and if I had lead experience, as I was interviewing for a senior role.

They mentioned that a system design round would be involved after the algorithm rounds and that I might have to go through additional interviews if I wanted to "level up". Most likely, based on performance, they would place candidates at a mid-level if they did not come from a FAANG company.

I am not supposed to share the specific questions, but there was one question you would find from the Blind 75 list, and one question that was not on Blind 75. I did not make it to the system design round.
