Senior Software Engineer Interview Experience - United States
Process
I was fast-tracked to the final round. It consisted of three rounds: a resume overview, two LeetCode questions, and system design.
They really dug deep and asked me a lot of in-depth questions from my resume. They asked me to give three differences between the databases I've worked with and why I chose to work with certain technologies. It honestly felt like rapid-fire questions based on my resume.
Questions
Sliding window and LeetCode easy.
